Help support Brandis non-for-profit after care program
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Brandi Hensley and I’m a non-profit after-school care program located on the north side of Chicago, 5200 N. Broadway St., 60640. I’m also a childcare provider, providing care in my area for 26 years this coming November.
As this school year approaches, many of the children in my neighborhood are in need of after-school care. Many places in my area fill up fast and it leaves most parents scrambling and looking for care. most families do not qualify for childcare subsidy programs offered by the state of Illinois which would leave the parents possibly having to leave the children with an elderly family member who can help at times but not often due to the fact that they don’t understand the new way of teaching and the kids' homework, and possibly not having enough energy to interact with the children. There is a high demand for my after-care program needed in the Edgewater Andersonville uptown community.
I'm looking to raise 30 to 50k to fund equipment, supplies, refrigerators, a stove for baking activities, video game consoles for the playroom, tables, chairs for computer systems, installation of a bathroom, toys, arts supplies, food and transportation services. If you can’t do a monetary donation I do accept goods and services. Donation of slightly used goods.
This program is a great passion of mine, inspired by my late mom, Joyce Carothers Hensley, she always encouraged and supported me in any journey I’ve had in this life. I’m so grateful and blessed to have had her on my side.
Thank you in advance to everyone that’s willing to help me fulfill this mission that deserves to be completed. Stay blessed.
