- in cases where discretionary one time funding will provide immediate assistance in dealing with an unexpected event that affects the family’s ability to cover child care costs.
Funding for the Mary Czynszak-Lyne University Staff Child Care Award Fund is made possible by individual donations.
Employees should refer to the application for eligibility guidelines. Applications are accepted throughout the year. Grants are always awarded based on fund availability and family need. Typically 4-6 awards are granted each year with awards averaging $500.
