Financial support is important for constructing the basic and professional infrastructure of the centre.
Finances are required for buying toys, books and other stuff for children. A lot of arrangements are required to be done for health and safety of children in a quality child care center. A quality child care center has quality facilities of food and these food facilities can be made available only if good money is put into it. Different equipment are required to run a child care center including washrooms equipped with dealing with non-toilet trained children and other children stuff.
Therefore, financial support is required for building a quality child care center.
