About Chatham County Partnership for Children

Chatham County Partnership for Children directs funding toward early childhood systems in Chatham County, with the largest recent grant going to Chatham County Schools for NC Pre-K. That pattern points to a funder that uses grants to place children in pre-kindergarten slots, support child care nutrition, and strengthen services for families with young children. Recent awards also show sustained support for Playmates Child Care and Development Center in Selma through the child nutrition and Child and Adult Care Food Program line, alongside NC Pre-K investments for Telamon Head Start, Children First, and Chatham Child Development Center. The foundation’s grantmaking is built around direct program delivery and service infrastructure rather than individual support. Its active programs include local administration of NC Pre-K, sponsorship for child care centers and homes in CACFP, and Smart Start funding for quality child care, health, family support, and provider capacity. Grants appear to move through local partners that deliver early learning, nutrition, and family services in Chatham County and nearby North Carolina communities. The result is a funder profile centered on early childhood access, provider support, and coordinated local implementation.
