Shelli French, director of the Effingham Child Development Center, spoke at the Noon Rotary Club’s November 11th meeting. ECDC has been in existence for 54 years as a nonprofit center serving children of all abilities or ability to pay. Beyond simply providing a place for children while parents are at work, the center provides educational opportunities, social interaction, and support for the child’s physical, cognitive and emotional development. Nearly 200 children are served each year.
