Mission
Provide education through high quality childhood care and education programs in a safe environment that promotes health, happiness and well-being.
Program accomplishments
- Generations Early Learning & Family Center, a division of The St. Francis Foundation (est. 1985), provides early childhood education within residential care facilities. Originally operating as St. Francis Childcare, the center moved in 2015 to partner with Mt. Baker Care Center and Summit Place Assisted Living to expand its intergenerational care model, benefiting children, families, residents, and staff.The center serves 68 children daily (ages 4 weeks to 6 years) and 90 children annually. In December 2024, it expanded to include an infant room in response to the county's childcare crisis, where 55% of families lack access to care, especially for infants.Generations prioritizes equity by offering enrollment priority and tuition assistance to BIPOC, foster/kinship care families, and those receiving subsidies. Its Tuition Assistance Program supports low to mid-income families who don't qualify for other aid, raising its low-income enrollment to 30%. The center is committed to inclusivity, diversity, and meeting critical childcare needs in Whatcom County.Expenses $1,357,729 · grants $2,097 · revenue $1,354,768
