"See SED Grow"

Don’t miss it. It will happen in a blink of an eye! The SED Center is FINALLY moving to a bigger place…and fast!

4110 Kansas Avenue, NW, in Petworth, is now being transformed into a state of the art education facility providing quality childcare, including infant care for 40 babies, preschool and adult continued learning to families who desperately need it. This Petworth warehouse will be our new home.

Thanks to the efforts of board member Ray Ritchey of Boston Properties, and brokers Dennis Perkins and Will Carroll of CB Richard Ellis, the SED Center identified the old Hahn Shoe warehouse as the perfect place that will triple our capacity. The space will be completely renovated to accommodate the services we provide and create an exciting, inviting environment that will entice people of all ages to enjoy learning.

One of Washington’s premier construction companies is generously covering the bulk of the construction through a donation of services and finances. Additional significant donations from several other Angel Donors will enable the SED Center to undertake the ambitious renovation. However, our fundraising is not over yet. We need to fill our classrooms with desks, learning stations, books and much, much more. We are just $500,000 short of the amount needed to make this goal a reality.

Do you think you can help? Then move forward to our website and click on Donate Now. Any and all donations are welcomed. Just be sure to designate your donation to the “Building Fund.”

You can also send your financial donations to The SED Center at 1840 Kalorama Road, N.W., Washington, DC 20009. Please specify “Building Fund” on your check.

Be part of our excitement, joy, and pride in our students, alumni and services.

BE A PART OF SED’S GROWTH!
