Founded in 1980, the old EERC (East European Research Center) was the brain child of Prof. Radu Florescu, with the main purpose to facilitate cultural exchange between Eastern European scholars with their counterparts in the United States. After the fall of the communist block EERC began to pilot a program between 1997-2001 while bringing academically gifted, English-speaking Romanian children from impoverished families to summer schools in the Boston area.

The new EERC (Educational Enrichment for Romanian Children ) was created in 2008 by Dr. Dana Floru and Prof Radu Florescu and with the mentorship of Ms. Lidia Bradley. The first meeting took place at Boston College in 2006 and helped layout the framework for a nonprofit concerned with facilitating educational experiences for Romanian students. Under the leadership of Dr. Floru the program took off in 2009 with the help of Ms Michelle Ciurea other generous and enthusiastic individuals. For the last few years the organization is run by the joint efforts of Dr Floru, Dr Anastasoaie, Ms Stanca , Ms Manuc and other volunteers.
