The Early Childhood Council of Boulder County (ECCBC) is honored to launch the Access to Opportunity Fund in loving memory of Bob Palaich.

As a dedicated board member, Bob left a lasting legacy of advocating for those with limited access to opportunities. Today, hundreds of children in our community face barriers to high-quality early childhood education, a challenge worsened by the freeze on the Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP), our sole child care subsidy. This gap is straining families, child care providers, and our broader economy.

By creating this fund, we honor Bob’s commitment to equity, providing critical support to children and families in need. This initiative will give vulnerable children access to the care and education they deserve, while allowing parents to work and helping children build a foundation for lifelong success.

Your donation will qualify for the Colorado Contribution Tax Credit in which you can get up to a 50% tax credit  on this donation when you file your Colorado state income taxes. 

Should you have any questions or would like to learn more, please feel free to contact Kaycee directly at kheadrick@eccbouldercounty.org or at 720-548-3979.
