Description

 

The Trumbull Early Childhood Education Center (TECEC) is an integrated special needs pre-school with a warm and welcoming environment for all students. The faculty and staff celebrate differences, promote inclusivity, and teach kindness.

In 2024, after three years of raising funds, the TECEC Parent-Teacher Organization installed Phase One of a new playground at the preschool. This structure was expertly designed to promote social/emotional learning, physical development, fun, and inclusion among all students.

This year, we are raising money to fund Phase Two, which will replace remaining equipment with new features, including a new rubber surface. 

We are seeking corporate sponsorships for our event and in-kind donations for our auctions and raffles. Please see attached for sponsorship levels and details.

ABOUT ‘A BIG NIGHT OUT’

Our annual fundraising event will be held May 16th, 2025 at The Hops Company in Derby. The event will feature both a live and silent auction, raffle, dinner, drinks, and entertainment. We expect more than 250 community members to attend and help support our cause. Last year, we raised more than $35K, and we need your support this year to surpass our past success.

ABOUT TECEC
TECEC is located in Trumbull, Connecticut and provides a high-quality early education in a nurturing environment for over 250 children between the ages of 3-5 years old.  We have four program models which include an integrated Special Education Program for children with and without identified special needs, a Specialized Resource Program for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, and two Head Start classrooms.

If you need any further information, please contact us at tecec.abno@gmail.com.

 

Thank you for helping to make our goal of updating the school playground a reality.
