COVINGTON The new life offered by the New Life Center isn't just three squares a day it's the three R's too.
The New Life Center and the Northern Kentucky community college system that just benefitted from proponent Bill Butler's donation of 6.4 acres of prime Boone County property are also at the very early stages of a planned collaboration for Covington, they said last week.
That partnership may result in a new community college campus near the proposed center one that would serve the centerand Covington community members.
It is important that people from all walks of life have the availability of post-secondary education and the access to post-secondary education, said Dorsey Jones, executive vice president of the Northern Kentucky Communi ty & Technical College District. The district will provide classes at the center and already has $1 million in donations for a Covington site.
When you look at the education opportunities we have interwoven with all the elements of the New Life facility, it really rounds out the package, Mr. Jones said.
Mr. Jones said the college has received an anonymous donation of $1 million for the satellite education facility that would be built on Madison, one block north of the New Life Learning Center.
Additional fund-raising will be done for the Covington facility
With a $2 million endowment, such a facility would be able to provide The Life Center and the residents of Covington with an accessible place to launch their future higher education and training, Mr. Jones said.
