We are thrilled to invite you to the  29th Annual Early Childhood Development Center (ECDC) Lecture & Luncheon

(564 Park Ave, New York, NY 10065)

from 11:30 AM to 2:00 PM


Honoring the Legacy of Becky & Bob Thomas and the ECDC Playroom

For over 50 years, the ECDC Playroom has been a space of joy, learning, and community for families, thanks in large part to the dedication of Becky and Bob Thomas. Their vision has created a lasting impact, supporting the multiple generations of children and parents who have passed through the playroom. Families that once benefited from ECDC’s programs now bring their own children back, a testament to the transformative power of this space​.

This year’s luncheon serves as a special moment to secure the future of the Becky & Bob Thomas Playroom, ensuring it continues to provide essential early childhood development resources for years to come.

A Special Thanks to Thea Obstler

Thanks to the generosity of Thea Obstler, this year’s luncheon is free to attend with an invitation. Instead of purchasing a ticket, we invite guests to make an impactful contribution in support of the Playroom’s ongoing mission.

Your presence at this special occasion is more than just a celebration—it is a commitment to the children and families we serve. Together, we make a lasting impact and ensure that ECDC’s mission continues.

We look forward to seeing you there!
