PROVIDENCE HOUSING AUTHORITY

The Providence Housing Authority (PHA), in collaboration with the Boston Celtics Shamrock Foundation and the Amica

Companies Foundation, is proud to announce the construction of a new early education center located in the heart of

the Manton Heights public housing community in Providence, RI.

This thoughtfully designed three-classroom facility will provide high-quality care and early learning opportunities for up

to 42 children, ages 18 months-5, from Manton Heights and other PHA neighborhoods. The center will feature 4,000

square feet of indoor classroom space and a 1,500- square-foot outdoor play area, creating a safe, engaging

environment where young children can learn, grow, and thrive.

We believe that every child deserves a strong start and that every family deserves the resources to thrive. The Manton

Heights Early Education Center represents an important step towards that vision. We are seeking to add a dedicated

construction company to complete this high-quality renovation project by June 1st, 2026.

Attached you will find an Invitation for Bid (IFB) issued by the Providence Housing Authority. We urge you to consider

submitting a bid to join our team as the construction company for the Manton Heights Early Childhood Education

Center. Together we can prepare the next generation of children to be champions in the game of life!
