Early Childhood Alliance

5th Annual Fun Fair 

Last year, ECA staff, family liaisons, and 37 partner organizations provided an engaging, informative event filled with fun children’s activities, giveaways, quality snacks, a book walk, face painting, and more! Over 600 people attended the ECA Fun Fair at Oakton College in May 2025 with information about the event reaching over 2000+ families in the community via social media, emailed newsletters, and comprehensive, boots on the ground outreach within the 21 square mile community. We are anticipating an even bigger event this year!

We would love for you to consider becoming a sponsor (as a business or an individual) of our 5th annual ECA Early Childhood Fun Fair to be hosted on Saturday, May 2 at Oakton College from 10:00-1:00. The ECA Early Childhood Fun Fair is an event specifically for families with young children that provides:

  • A fun and welcoming environment for children to participate in art and craft activities, games, literacy activities, and more

  • An opportunity for families to connect with essential information and resources and build community in a high-quality, safe, and friendly environment

The ECA’s comprehensive outreach approach ensures that we are meeting families where they are – fliers are distributed by talking with families, posted in apartment buildings, community grocery stores, park district buildings, and door to door where our youngest people live. In addition, our 49 partner organizations, including 10 school districts, villages, and chambers of commerce, will all help to publicize the event. The flier’s reach will be wide, and we would love to include you! We have several sponsorship levels available, each offering unique benefits to help publicize your business and recognize your support. Please see the attached Tiers of Sponsorship page for further details -- recognition with links to your organization will remain on the ECA website for the year.
