Carver Center works to build lifetime achievers

The George Washington Carver Community Center in Norwalk has been “building lifetime achievers,” as its motto reads, for over 70 years. Despite its seven decades of existence and service, the lack of knowledge in the lower Fairfield county area is a fact that continues to shock those involved with the center — and motivates them to change it.

“One of the things that I am continued to be surprised at is how little awareness there is for the Carver Center,” said Darienite Mike Gregorich, a finance board member at the center. “I view it as right in our backyard. It seems to me everyone in the area should be involved given the impact it has.”
