Funding pattern
What this funder pays for, at what size, and how to position adjacent work. Read from their filings, with every number checked against the record.
Where the money goes
- School Readiness and VPK payments to licensed childcare providers
- Private child care centers and preschools in Northeast Florida
- Faith-based preschools and church-run learning centers
- County school district pre-K and elementary early learning programs
- National childcare chains operating local sites (Kid City, O2B, La Petite)
Typical grant
Median payment is about $84,000, with the middle half falling between $27,000 and $199,000. The largest checks, from roughly $400,000 to over $1 million, go to high-enrollment sites like school district pre-K programs and multi-classroom academies in St. Johns, Clay, and Putnam counties. Payments repeat year over year because they are enrollment-based reimbursements to contracted providers, not competitive one-time awards.
Their words
Phrases from their own grant descriptions, worth speaking back to them.
- “SCHOOL READINESS / VPK PROVIDER PAYMENTS”
- “SCHOOL READINESS”
- “VPK PROVIDER PAYMENTS”
Positioning adjacent work
- Understand this is an early learning coalition paying enrolled providers, not a discretionary grantmaker funding outside projects.
- If you run or partner with a licensed VPK site in their counties, provider contracting is the only real entry point.
- Frame any research collaboration around school readiness outcomes for the children already served in their provider network.
- Expect amounts tied to child enrollment counts, not a proposal budget; a $25,000 to $100,000 range reflects a small site.
Worth knowing: Virtually all money stays in Northeast Florida, concentrated in Duval, Clay, St. Johns, Putnam, Baker, Bradford, and Nassau counties; the handful of out-of-state entries are corporate headquarters addresses for locally operated centers. This is pass-through public early learning funding distributed to hundreds of contracted providers, so there is no charitable grants program in the conventional sense.
