Support the Cindy Fund

Cindy Roberts believed in making quality child care available to every family, regardless of income. As executive director of the Parent-Infant Center in West Philadelphia, she championed PIC's longstanding commitment to providing the highest quality child care, honoring a diverse community, and serving more children.
 
Thanks to Cindy, PIC became one of the earliest partners to participate in Pennsylvania's Pre-K Counts initiative, established to provide publicly funded preschool education to 3- and 4-year olds from economically-disadvantaged households.
 
Countless studies show quality pre-K improves kids' chances of success in school and in life. But the costs are high and government subsidies don't begin to cover it.
 
The Roberts-Biddle family wants to see this work continue and has asked PIC to dedicate a special fund to support pre-K children on subsidy at PIC.
