  • Organization Description:

    We issue one-year, renewable grants to low-income student mothers who are attending a HOPE-eligible college or qualifying job training program in Georgia. We accept applications on a continuous basis and award grants as funding becomes available. When a student is awarded a grant, we create a customized support package that ensures continuity of care. That may include full-time care, before or after school care, summer camp, and occasionally overnight or weekend care for students enrolled in programs that require clinicals such as nursing or radiology tech.

All Programs

The Nana Grants CAPS Bridge Funding Program provides supplemental child care funding for low-income single mothers attending Chattahoochee Tech, Gwinnett Tech, Atlanta Tech or Central Georgia Tech. Georgia’s CAPS program supports early education goals by assisting low income families with the cost of child care while they work, go to school or training, or participate in other work-related activities. But even with CAPS, a single mother with an infant may still be expected to pay $55 per week ($2750 per year) or more for child care. Nana Grants' CAPS Bridge Funding allows single mothers to balance school, work and parenting. Many of our mothers are one car repair or doctor’s visit away from financial insolvency. Nana Grants helps them stay on track for graduation.
