Empowering Families and Building Futures: Moore 4 You Community Development Center's Legacy of Support and Growth
About Us
The Moore 4 You Community Development Center, known as M4U, stands as a beacon of community support and empowerment. Established in 1998 as a registered 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization in New York State, M4U has been dedicated to serving the diverse needs of families in the NYC and Long Island areas. Our headquarters, situated at 90 Mill Road in Freeport NY 11520, serves as the heart of our operations. For over two decades, M4U has been a cornerstone in providing essential childcare services. Initially founded to address the growing need for after-school and summer camp programs in Brooklyn, NY, M4U quickly garnered recognition as a leading childcare provider. In 2023, we expanded our reach and impact with the opening of our newest community center in Freeport, Long Island.
