philanthropy to help Jewish parents send young children to Jewish preschool?

Just putting this out there. If there are childless Jews or other individuals who would like to support the nurturing of the next Jewish generation, we need to create an organization to help provide scholarships for Jewish preschools. There are 4-5 moms of young children/babies ( including myself) that work at our local synagogue and can’t afford to send our children to our synagogue’s OUTSTANDING preschool. It makes me so sad bc we are the families who want to raise our babies at the shul, in the preschool etc. The temple can’t afford to offer any more discounts to employees since it is the major revenue generator for the synagogue. Many preschool spots are filled by non-Jewish families who are willing to pay the money to attend the best preschool in our area. Anyone else dealing with this? Know of a Jewish Scholarship for preschools? I have 2 year old twins who will be doing secular Co-op preschool this fall because that’s all I can afford. I only work part time for the synagogue due to being the primary care-taker of my 3 children and I am not eligible for any discount.
