Candelen Receives Grant from Desert Financial Credit Union to Support Play & Learn
October 26, 2021 |Candelen has been selected as a Desert Financial Credit Union grant recipient! The grant, in the amount of $15,000, will support in delivering a Play & Learn program in Prescott, including participation in the Language and Literacy Technical Assistance Project.

Candelen is elated to be partnering with Desert Financial to have a chance to serve Northern Arizona with this essential program. Families are bombarded with messages of what they need to purchase so their children can be ready for school, but children are natural researchers and families already have what it takes to support them. Play & Learns show families how to use what they already have at home to help build important ready for school skills.
