MIDDLETOWN, RI (May 1, 2025) –
JEFF BROOKS PARTNERS WITH THE MLK COMMUNITY CENTER TO SUPPORT LOCAL FAMILIES THIS SUMMER
Local resident and Hogan Associates agent Jeff Brooks is proud to announce a fundraising campaign in partnership with the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Community Center (MLK Center) to support Newport families during the summer months.
As the school year ends, many working families face the challenge of securing reliable childcare and continued enrichment for their children. The MLK Community Center steps in year-round to offer critical services, including preschool, childcare, and summer camp programs that benefit the area’s youngest residents.
“This year, I’m teaming up with the MLK Center to help make summer a little easier for local families,” said Brooks. “The center is a lifeline for working parents and a nurturing, educational environment for kids in our community.”
The goal is to raise $79,200 by the end of May to sustain and support the MLK Center’s summer programming. Every donation makes a difference:
- $50 provides a week of lunch and snacks for a child
- $170 covers a week of preschool, including meals and enriching activities
- $1,360 sponsors a full 8-week summer program for one student
Contributions will be accepted throughout the month of May via ProjectSummerDaycare.com
Jeff Brooks and the MLK Community Center invite the Newport community to rally together in support of local children and families.
“Let’s come together to support our littlest Newporters and the hardworking families who rely on the MLK Center,” Brooks said. “Every bit helps.”
