Building Strong Foundations —
Help Open Two New Early Learning Centers for Nashville Families by 2026.
CURRENT GOAL: $350,000 by December 31
The Crisis Nashville Families Can’t Ignore
Nashville’s childcare shortage has reached a breaking point:
69,000 children under age five — but only 34,497 childcare seats
Infant care costs more than in-state college tuition
Waitlists stretch 12–24 months
Your support helps change this reality.
Equally Created Is the Solution Families Deserve
Equally Created is not daycare. It is a mission-driven, trauma-informed early learning model built on research, equity, and sustainability.
Every center provides:
Inclusive, child-centered classrooms
On-site trauma-informed Child Development Specialist
Sliding scale, full tuition, and federal certificate seats
With proven success across our two current campuses, it’s time to expand!
The Vision

Clifton Ave
Opening Fall 2026
