As we walk through the halls of Eastminster Child Development Center today- halls once filled with your children's laughter, their first steps into learning, their art-covered hands, and wide wonder-we’re reminded that we are caretakers of more than just a building.  We are guardians of a place that has shaped generations. For 55 years, Eastminster has been a cherished part of our community, shaping the lives of countless children—including yours and maybe even your grandchildren. Generations of families have walked through our doors, finding a safe, nurturing environment where children could learn, grow, and thrive. Today, we reach out to you, our alumni, our extended family, with a heartfelt request. Time has taken its toll on our beloved facility, and we are in urgent need of building repairs. To continue providing the same quality care and enriching experiences that so many have benefited from, we need your support. Several areas of our building require immediate attention. We need to repaint worn walls to brighten our learning spaces, improve interior and exterior lighting for safety and functionality, repair sections of our aging roof to prevent water damage, and replace aging fire doors. These improvements are essential for maintaining a safe and welcoming environment for our children and staff. The estimated cost for these upgrades is over $100,000. Your generous donation—no matter the amount—will help ensure that future generations of children have a secure, engaging, and joyful place to learn and grow. Imagine the impact your gift will have restoring our facility, enhancing safety, and preserving the heart of our community for years to come. We invite you to be a part of this important initiative. You can make your tax-deductible donation online here or by mailing a check to 693 North Hagadorn Road, East Lansing MI 48823. Every contribution brings us one step closer to our goal and makes a difference in the lives of the children we serve. Thank you for being a part of our history—and our future. Your generosity and kindness mean the world to us, just as your family has meant so much to Eastminster Child Development Center over the years.
