If you live in the Hamptons, you likely know someone who The Eleanor Whitmore Early Childhood Center has positively impacted. Show your support for the Center this Saturday as they celebrate 54 years of uninterrupted service for Hamptons families at their annual Summer Benefit.
The Benefit will be held at the Eleanor Whitmore Early Childhood Center this Saturday, June 24, from 6:30–11 pm.
The Summer Benefit Gala is an iconic summer highlight in the Hamptons, and with 54 years of experience, you know they do it right! Make sure you come dressed to sparkle and shine while you show off your best after-dinner disco dancing. Don’t worry; cocktails and libations can help you loosen up!
Our summer Fundraiser this year celebrates 54 years of service to working families in our community, providing affordable, high quality childcare and early education for children 18 months to 4 years old. We will be honoring the teachers and staff who made these 54 years possible. On June 24th, we will Dance the Night Away to the sights and sounds of Disco. Come dressed in your disco-era sparkly best. Your ticket buys admission to a night of disco, and helps ensure access to affordable childcare…. That’s a hot ticket. “- Tim Frazier Executive Director

There isn’t enough that can be said about how important the Center is to the Hamptons as a community today and in the years to come. They say it best, “A thriving community needs an available workforce that relies on quality, affordable, all-day care for our children. What we do is not possible without the financial support of private individuals.”
The Center is driven by decades of experience and knows “the first 5 years matter most.” Since its founding, the Center has remained committed to community programming driven by leading science and common sense to help kids develop strong minds, bodies, and characters.
Community support is the driving force behind the Center’s work. Kids are the future of our community, and everything the Center does is focused on their growth. Every day and all year, the Center welcomes more than 100 children under five from working families between 7:30 am and 5:30 pm.
EWECC is the only licensed, non-profit childcare center on the East End providing high-quality childcare and early education programs.
