Meet Veronique Roberts, owner of Kids Learn and Play Center, a home-based childcare program she opened in Houston, Texas more than a decade ago. In search of new ways to enhance her services and business operations, Roberts discovered the Collaborative for Children, a local non-profit organization supported by LISC and Procter & Gamble.

The Collaborative provided Roberts with emergency supplies to navigate the unpredictable Texas weather, as well as business courses related to budgeting.

Thanks to the Collaborative, Roberts now has more tools and confidence to provide a safe and stimulating environment for children, as well as expand and grow her business
