About BELKNAP CHILD DEVELOPMENT CENTER

Belknap Child Development Center is a small 501(c)(3) child day care organization formed in the early 2000s with IRS recognition (ruling year 2004). It delivers center-based early childhood care and preschool programming designed to foster socialization and developmental readiness for young children. Recent public filings and nonprofit data profiles show the organization operating an established program site in the Grand Rapids area (reported program address: 751 Lafayette Ave NE, Grand Rapids, MI) while filings/listings also show a mailing/contact address in Cedar Springs (12144 White Cedar Dr). In the last 2–3 years the center has reported modest annual revenues (approximately $180k in 2023) and staffing levels consistent with a small community childcare provider (about eight employees), and its most recent financial disclosure shows a very high portion of spending directed to program services.
