Our Child of America gala guests enjoyed the wonderful fellowship, music, auction, and dinner our celebrations are known for. We heard from Carver leaders and a Carver intern working at Norwalk Hospital. We saw videos of Carver’s “Decades of Impact” and a short video about our Earn & Learn program at Norwalk Hospital.
See and hear about our journey since 1938, including comments from alumni!
Our 2022 honoree Jerry Craft taught Carver kids for more than 10 years. Jerry is an American cartoonist and children's book illustrator best known for his syndicated newspaper comic strip Mama's Boyz and his graphic novel New Kid. Jerry is one of only a handful of syndicated African American cartoonists in the US. Jerry is the New York Times bestselling author and illustrator of the graphic novels New Kid and Class Act. New Kid is the only book in history to win each of these three awards: the John Newbery Medal, the Kirkus Prize for Young Readers’ Literature, and the Coretta Scott King Author Award.
