Molly Lafall, chairman of the Hilltop child directors of the Hilltop Child Care Center, asked the Financing and Auditing Committee to the Student Senate to open a day care center next fall.
The request was made Monday, April 13, 2016, open in bearing held by the Financial Auditing committee to decide the allocations for the following year.
"We have planned this center at the beginning of the year. Center in Lawrence, which is really good day care center," she said, "that allows families to be the family they serve are single parent families and most are also students, so there is a need for more."
Lafain said the $20,000 would be a one time allocation for supplies and that the aim of Hilltop Child Care was to be self supporting.
"We've had calls from people who are desperate for a center to place their children."
Eleven other groups presented their projected budgets to the Finance and Auditing Committee, which asked for $28,830. Community Development Collaborative, Students Organization, Students Organization, $170
Community Service Clearing House, $375; CWENS, $580.

junior and Student Senate
treasurer, said the hearings
continue every night this
week.

He said he expected the next few evenings to go much more smoothly because the committee needed more questions of questions were important.
"I think the Finance and Auditing Committee has an extraordinary amount of work to do in the next week." O'Neill said.
"if things go as well as they did tonight, though, we should have our recommendations ready for the Senate by Monday," he said.
