TEACH Early Childhood Colorado

We know your feed is full of amazing causes this giving season, but if supporting access to higher education for the educators shaping little brains and supporting families sounds like your kind of impact, we’d love your support! Your donation helps early childhood educators thrive—and every bit truly makes a difference.

The T.E.A.C.H. Early Childhood® Colorado Scholarship is currently empowering 41 early childhood professionals to enhance their skills and impact young lives. However, there are currently 209 eligible students on the waitlist—qualified, passionate individuals ready to join the program but unable to due to limited funding.

Early Giving for Colorado Gives Day is open! From Nov 1–Dec 10, your donation will be boosted by a $1M+ Incentive Fund, made possible by Colorado Gives Foundation and FirstBank. Plus, new monthly donations are matched up to $100!

This comes from Enola!

Degree programs are not one size fits all - be sure that you are taking the right electives to transfer to the school of your choice. If you are on an ECCLA scholarship, your counselor is a GREAT resource and can help you determine if you are on the right path!

We are proud of you too, Lisa! Congratulations!

Did you know that T.E.A.C.H. will reimburse your early learning program $10/hour for up to 36 hours per semester for giving your T.E.A.C.H. scholar paid release time to study, do homework, go to class, etc. Paid release time can look like giving a teacher paid time during naptime to do homework (if ratios allow), releasing a teacher early with pay or scheduling them to come in late, banking time to give your teacher a day off to take an exam and more. For ideas on how to provide paid release time without compromising the needs of your program, please visit our FAQ at www.ecclacolorado.org/teach-faq!

“The T.E.A.C.H. scholarship allowed me to become Director Qualified. I am a single mom on a tight budget. I would never have been able to extend my education and become Director Qualified if it were not for T.E.A.C.H. I thank you for allowing me to have a career in teaching!”

Congratulations on becoming Director Qualified, Michelle! 🎉 You earned it!
