The President’s Trust Fund
The purpose of the Texas Association for the Education of Young Children is to celebrate, educate and advocate for children, families and the early childhood profession. In keeping with this philosophy, the President’s Trust Fund supports educational opportunities for Texas AEYC members currently involved in the enrichment of the lives of young children. A monetary grant of $500 may be used by the recipient to cover expenses incurred for professional and leadership development in the field of early childhood.
