About Our Organization
The Akron Children's Center is a Non-profit licensed child care and preschool for children 6 weeks to 12 years of age. We offer a wide range of services to help the families that are enrolled here at the Children's Center. From vision screenings, our local photographer coming in and taking pictures , visits from Community members, and our Meals meet the nutrition guidelines of the Child and Adult Food Program. The Children's Center offers a 4 day a week 3s preschool program, Before and After School Childcare with this being one of the school bus pick up and drop off locations. We also have a upgraded fenced in playground with it being divided into 3 sections: Infants-2 year olds; 3s year olds, and a section of our playground being for the school age group. Here at the Children's Center, we believe that Family is the most important part of the children's lives, and we are here to help support the needs of each child individually with activities planned around the interest of the children to help them learn and grow.
Our roof at the Akron Children's Center is the original roof, with the building built in 2003. The shingles are starting to curl and show wear and tear due to the elements. This is a much needed project, and with our operating budget set yearly this leaves the center's budget with very little room for overages. Most of the center's income comes from Parent Pay tuition, Fundraisers, Grants and Donations. Any donations will help to raise the funds needed to replace our roof.
