Donate to CEB - a home where every child thrives, cradle to career.

Organization Mission:

To build the best educational support system possible that allows every student who walks through our doors an equitable opportunity to be successful.

This summer, the Youth Development Center will become a haven — a place where children receive tutoring, explore the arts, and build confidence through sports.

To fully power Summer Haven, we need to raise $15,000 before summer begins.
For 24 hours during DoMore24, your gift helps us cross that finish line.

Give today and help Wilmington’s youth thrive this summer.  Arts and physical education are not extras — they are essential pathways for young people to build confidence, creativity, and leadership.  These are the spaces where students practice collaboration, discover their talents, and develop skills that prepare them for school, careers, and life.

This summer, YDC’s Summer Haven program will bring tutoring, arts enrichment, and sports together in a safe, structured environment for Wilmington youth.  To make this possible, we must raise $15,000 before summer begins.  For 24 hours during DoMore24, you can help power a summer filled with learning, creativity, and opportunity.
Make your gift today and help us open the doors to Summer Haven.

Community Education Building's NEW Youth Development Center (YDC) anchors the school day with a vibrant space for movement, fitness, and recreation — and extends CEB’s cradle-to-career model beyond school hours, because learning gaps, social pressures, and unmet needs don’t end at 3:00 PM.

Its purpose is to ensure young people have:
A safe, structured place for sports, fitness, arts, and recreation during and after school.
Mentorship, life skills, and exposure to career pathways.
Access to wellness resources, social services, and trusted adults.
A positive environment that reduces risk and increases opportunity.
 
By design, the YDC closes opportunity gaps during the most vulnerable hours of the day.
