Introduction
The MENDAKI-MUIS Preschool Grant (MMPG) is targeted to low-income families with children below 6 years old who are enrolled in preschool. It aims to lower the cost barriers for entry to preschool, and assist mothers to return to and remain in formal employment. Beyond that, MMPG encourages parents to cultivate a habit of saving for their children’s education.
Through a dollar-a-day saving in the Child Development Co-Savings Account (CDA), MMPG will co-match this saving, which will be capped at $30 per month. These will be further co-matched by government, and parents can maximise the CDA benefits to pay for their child preschool fees, medical and developmental needs.
