BRIGHT HORIZONS IS A NONPROFIT AGENCY.  WE GUARANTEE THAT 83   CENTS  OF EVERY DOLLAR WE RECEIVE GOES BACK INTO SERVICES, NOT OVERHEAD.

PEOPLE SOMETIMES ASK  US HOW AND WHY  A NONPROFIT CHARGES FEES.  THAT'S A COMPLETELY FAIR QUESTION--HERE'S HOW IT  WORKS. THE FEES WE CHARGE ACCOUNT FOR ONLY 20% OF  OUR BUDGET, SO WE   ARE NOT PROFITING FROM CLIENT SERVICES.   OUR WONDERFUL CLIENTS CONTRIBUTE TO KEEPING OUR SERVICES AVAILABLE FOR EVERYONE BY PAYING  SLIDING SCALE FEES,   AND WE APPRECIATE THEM GREATLY, BUT  TO KEEP OUR SERVICES  AVAILABLE AND AFFORDABLE, WE  DO NEED THE SUPPORT OF THE COMMUNITY AS WELL.
