About

FDC’s after-school programs are a vital resource for hundreds of children in Flatbush, providing them with a safe, enriching environment that nurtures their growth in various key areas. Our kids have the opportunity to improve important skills like teamwork, communication, and problem-solving, all while receiving educational support that strengthens their academic performance.

Beyond academics, the program fosters creative and artistic expression, offering classes in visual arts, and music, encouraging our kids’ imagination, and boost their confidence. Our sports activities promote health and fitness, instilling lifelong habits for a balanced lifestyle.

 

Additionally, the program introduces children to practical life skills like cooking and fashion, allowing them to explore different interests and develop competencies that go beyond the classroom. This well-rounded approach ensures that children not only receive the academic help they need but also grow into well-rounded individuals ready to excel in various aspects of life.
