HOW DO WE KEEP HVCC COST-FREE?
A huge benefit of our program is the fact that it is COMPLETELY FREE to our community! We rely on support from donations and grants, which is what allows us to run our program cost-free to parents and keep it accessible to every child.
​
Our goal is to receive 25% of our annual budget through support from individuals and businesses in our community. The remaining funds are provided through foundations and grants, CACFP monies, and 21st CCLC funds.

YOUR FINANCIAL SUPPORT MATTERS!
Every dollar counts, and we would love to have you join our network of support! We truly believe in our youth and want to provide them with gold-star programming that will teach them how to be excellent humans. It takes a lot of dollars to maintain the staff, programming and meals for all the amazing kiddos that come through our doors!
​
Please consider becoming a monthly donor to help us empower our youth to become the solution!
