I have a dear friend in Kansas, who after years of having her own Day Care, opened up a program called GPS. It stands for God's Positioning System. It's a before and after school program as well as summer program for the children in the community. The parents can drop them off when they go to work. GPS feeds them breakfast and takes them to school. After school, they help with homework and feed them supper. They teach them about God, Patriotism and community service. In the summer, they grow a garden and show them how to cook with the veggies. Its a blessing for families, because they don't have to worry about latchkey kids. They've done this with donations and grants. They offer scholorships to families without the ability to pay. I'm sure she would love to be a resource to help others establish a program.
