The Tillicum Village Child Care Centre is one of the places that will receive funding through the provincial Child Care Major Capital Funding Program.
The centre is receiving 500,000 dollars to create 49 new spaces for children aged 3 to 5 years of age.
Organizations applying for funding had to propose to build a new child-care facility, renovate an existing building, or want to buy eligible equipment and furnishings to support new child-care spaces in an existing facility.
Priority was placed on applications proposing to create child-care spaces in underserved areas of B.C.
