About this organization
Mission
Building brighter futures by serving, educating, and empowering families in our community.
About
In 1943, Carver Center was founded by a small group of concerned, black community members; an entrepreneur, a dentist, three ministers, a hairdresser, a post office employee, a social worker, and a passionate group of volunteers who were grassroots organizers and advocates for the minority community in Port Chester. They came together to address the immediate needs of the children who needed care while their parents were working in defense factories making equipment for the war. Their vision, determination, and commitment are at the heart of Carver Center’s mission to build brighter futures. At one of the subsequent meetings, it was decided that Carver Center would be named after the renowned African American scientist, George Washington Carver, who passed that same year. It’s important to honor the legacy of these founders and the many directors and board members whose efforts and leadership have paved the way for generations of community members who have turned to the Carver Center for essential services and resources. Today’s Carver Center upholds the values of its founding and continues to prioritize the needs and voices of the community.
