Little to Succeed Imperio at Belmont Child Care Association

[Wandering Eyes]

Centennial Farms' Donald V. Little, Jr. has been named president of the Belmont Child Care Association, Inc. (BCCA) Board of Directors, a position long held by Libby Imperio, who is stepping down, according to a release from the organization. Imperio's new role will be as immediate past president and advisor to the executive committee.

Imperio has been a part of the BCCA board since 2009 and was named president in 2014. A vital part of BCCA and a champion of the backstretch community, she was responsible for several innovative means of supporting backstretch workers, including a college scholarship program which is awarded annually at the Anna House graduation. Under her tenure, the BCCA added a Women's Literacy Program and went from providing annual Christmas gifts for 50 families to 300 families.

“My 12 years as president have brought with it so much success and growth to BCCA, and I will be forever grateful for all the support I received from the BCCA board, BCCA staff, and most importantly, the donors for what we have accomplished together,” said Imperio.

Little has served on the BCCA board since 2016 and as vice president since 2019. President and co-owner of Centennial Farms since 1990, Little is also Chairman of the United States Polo Association (USPA) Club and holds a number of other equine-related positions.

“When I was asked to become president of such an outstanding and important organization for the children and families of the New York Thoroughbred racing backstretch community, it was an easy yes! I am honored to serve and will do my best to help BCCA thrive,” said Little.
