Description
The Program Sustainability Grant supports preventative investments that help childcare providers stay open and avoid larger expenses. Administered by the Bartlesville Community Foundation through its Early Childhood Education Support Fund, the grant focuses on maintaining facilities and equipment before problems become more costly.

Funding is limited, and the grant focus may change over time.
