Partnership and Prize Program
Eligible Participants
- For individuals: Family child care providers and child care centers, neighbor, friend and family care, tribal child care.
- Organizations: the vision for this program is for individuals but if, based on partnerships established it makes sense to provide to organizations as well, we will explore the opportunity.
Purpose of The Program
This program will enable eligible community members to implement best practices/policies in their child care settings who would need additional guidance for implementation. In place of providing funds, T&L Foundation will provide goods and/or services either 1) donated to T&L Foundation by partner organizations or 2) purchased by T&L Foundation at a considerable discounted rate.
This program largely depends on the potential partnerships that will be established with companies, nonprofits and consultants in the nutrition, health, and wellness and child care professions.
There are three models for this program:

There are three models for this program:
- A complete package. The awardee would receive a material award as well as a consultation to accompany it. For example: T&L Foundation provides all of the materials to set up a family style meal environment. Along with these materials would be a professional who could assist the provider as he/she implements the family style meal service.
- Materials Only. The awardee receives the materials from the project with no in person consultation.
- Consultation Only. The awardee receives time from a professional to help them with their program. For example, a consultant will donate their time to provide direction or guidance on setting up the backyard space for the optimal and safest child activity environment
