We are thrilled to share that—thanks to your generosity—we have officially met our immediate goal for the Root & Bloom Fund. Your support ensures that our teachers can continue bringing their own children to school, keeping families together and giving every child the steady, loving start they deserve. You have helped protect the heart of our model, and we are deeply grateful.
As we celebrate this milestone, we also face an urgent need. With the loss of Early Head Start support, our Thrive Together Fund must grow quickly to sustain small ratios, fair wages, nutritious meals, and trauma‑informed care—the core elements that allow our infants and toddlers to thrive in consistent, nurturing environments.
We need to raise $20,000 by the end of January 2026. Please consider donating today to keep classrooms open and ensure stability for our families.
Global Village Kids empowers refugee and immigrant women as early childhood professionals while providing quality childcare for the Missoula community.
Together, we are building a model where every child grows with love and security – and every teacher has the opportunity to work, learn, and belong.
“We envision a sustainable, inclusive community where refugees and immigrants are integrated into the workforce, given opportunities for professional growth, and where children receive nurturing, developmentally rich early education.”
— Marmot S.
