Officials at the Thoroughbred Education and Research Foundation (TERF) announced Friday an award of $10,000 to be given to the Belmont Childcare Association, Inc. (BCCA). A fund of the Chester County Community Foundation, TERF has earmarked the BCCA award to be used for educational purposes. BCCA provides a safe and supportive academic environment for the children of backside workers at New York Racing Association (NYRA) tracks. In 2019, BCCA also received funds from TERF, which were used for their early childhood education program.
TERF aims to support and promote equine education by supporting organizations that educate the public on the proper care of horses. BCCA will use the funding for their early childhood education program which incorporates a STEAM-based (science, technology, engineering, art, math) curriculum to prepare students for elementary school.
