Caddo Fund

About CFNLA’s Early Childhood Education Fund for Caddo

The Community Foundation brings people and resources together to solve problems. In January, CFNLA set out to raise $1 million so more Caddo Parish children ages 0 to 3 can attend quality early childhood education centers. We are delighted to report that $1 million has been raised and will be matched by the state!

Thank you to all donors to CFNLA’s Early Childhood Education Fund!

This could not have been accomplished without the many generous donors who have contributed to CFNLA’s Early Childhood Education Fund. CFNLA thanks you for entrusting your generous donations to the ECE Fund and for all you do for our community! Thanks to your support, 200 more children in Caddo Parish will be able to attend quality early childhood programs.
