The Infants’ Home has always been a pioneer in early childhood education and early intervention programs. We remain at the forefront of many changes in nurturing the unique strengths of every child and family in our care.
To continue to meet the evolving needs of our community we are building a new Early Learning and Care Centre on our spacious grounds at Ashfield.
The new centre will be an integrated, state-of-the-art hub of excellence that offers under one roof all the services we know to be important in early childhood development.
Today, our teams wrap around a child and provide seamless care to more than 1300 children and families, and our early intervention programs reach more than 400 families each year.
It is our goal to extend these programs through our new centre so we can help more families build more positive futures.
The new centre will cost about $10.5 million. Through sound financial management, and with many gracious commitments from our supporters, The Infants’ Home has $4 million towards the cost of this project.
The remaining $6.5 million is our fundraising target. We are in urgent need of your help to raise this money.
In March 2011, we launched our Priceless Gift of Opportunity Appeal asking the community to help us finance this vital investment in the lives of current and future generations.
Our endowment today will have profound impacts on the lives of many children in our community well into the future.
