What Downtown Hampton Child Care Council Inc does
Mission
To nurture young children by providing affordable, quality preschool programs that develop the whole child and foster school readiness. Continued on schedule o.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Peake childhood center has transformed the lives of countless children and families on the peninsula for more than 52 years with the support of the city of hampton. Peake focuses on the whole child and provides learning experiences through music and play, enhancing their social-emotional skills. Our devoted teachers use research-based curricula, grounded in literacy and numeracy, while committed to the virginia quality assessments. These assessments enable everyone at peake to hold themselves accountable to the mission of providing a quality, affordable program that ensures the children are ready for school when they leave. Peake addresses the affordability issue by qualifying for virginia's childcare subsidy program and the mixed delivery grant. (continued on schedule o)
$1,862,422 spent100% of program spendingPeake also provides support to 100% of the families whose children attend the center as the center provides the services needed to ensure parents can remain in the workforce. Training that is provided enables parents to support their children's learning at home. Families can also attend financial literacy sessions as well as health related ones that will help to ensure the family is successful. It should be noted that at least 75% of the children live below the federal poverty line.
Through a new partnership with the city of newport news and virginia peninsula community college (vpcc), peake will open a second center in a state-of-the-art building built by the city, located in southeast newport news that will serve 200 children and double the number of children served in hampton. This ambitious undertaking is the key to ensuring a greater opportunity for more children and families to benefit from a high-quality, early childhood education in hampton and newport news.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2024 to 2025, from $3.9M to $7.1M (+83%).

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
54% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund DOWNTOWN HAMPTON CHILD CARE COUNCIL INC.

Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $209k arriving through sponsors registered in 8 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
