Presenting the scientists of the future! Last month, the Future of America Learning Center (FALC) students, ages 2 to 5, proudly shared their discoveries at FALC’s 28th Annual Science Fair.

This year’s theme was “Reducing, Reusing, and Recycling: How Do These Practices Impact upon the Quality of Our Environment?” Throughout the year, the young FALC scholars took a scientific journey to explore the impact of the three Rs on the quality of our planet’s environment, focusing on our air, land and water.

Members and Children Get Ready for Summer Fun at the Anne Shore Camp Fair.

We recently welcomed members and their families to our Manhattan headquarters for an informational fair about the Anne Shore Sleep-Away Camp Program, helping them make informed decisions about finding the right camp for their children. Participating camps gave members an overview of their programs, including the arts, sports, outdoor adventure, technology and more!

Student speaker Kathryn Delim captured the Care for Kids Gala attendees’ hearts last week with her humor and optimism for the future.

A WorkForce 2000 alumna and JTSP scholarship recipient, Ms. Delim expressed her heartfelt gratitude to the Child Care Corporation for helping her along her road to success, quoting BTS’s Min Yoon-gi’s song, “D-Day”: “Future’s gonna be okay.” Ms. Delim is attending CUNY’s Baruch College, and she plans to make a mark in the entertainment industry.
