The Canadian child care movement has seen immense success. Most recently, the 2021 federal budget announced $30 billion towards building a system of early learning and child care Canada-wide. This announcement would not have been possible without strong, collective advocacy. It was advocacy that made child care a defining issue in the federal  election. It was also advocacy that mobilized Canadians and equipped them with the facts and arguments — that a system of universal early learning and child care is good for women, the economy, children, their families, and Canadians everywhere.

Our advocacy work at Child Care Now is not possible without member fees and donations. We have so much more to accomplish.

The construction of a Canada-wide system of early learning and child care is underway. We need your help to make sure that it is built right. 

Please help make our vision of high quality, universally accessible, inclusive, and affordable child care a reality. On this #GivingTuesday, we ask you to consider donating to us so that together we can build a universal early learning and child care system that truly values children, their families, and those who work in child care.
