Your Gift Creates a Ripple Effect of Change

That "wow!" moment in our DigitalTechWorks Academy™ is just the beginning. Your support creates a powerful ripple effect that strengthens the entire family and the entire community. This is how we build a future where everyone can thrive:

From the Court to the Keyboard to the Campfire: We meet youth where they are. In our Youth Leadership and Basketball program, they learn discipline and teamwork. In our ManCode and E-Sports programs, they level up those skills for the digital world. And at Camp Katharine Parsons, one of the few Black-owned outdoor camps in the U.S., located on the wooded shores of Oak Lake, children and youth build lifelong friendships, learn environmental conservation, fishing and camping, as they forge a deep, lasting connection to nature.

A Foundation for the Future: It all starts at the beginning. At the Mary T. Wellcome Child Development Center, we ensure every child, regardless of their family's income, receives the nurturing, high-quality early education that sets them up for a lifetime of success.

Breaking Cycles, Building Legacies: True change happens across generations. Our Financial Literacy and Parenting programs empower parents to build stability and economic independence, creating a foundation of prosperity that their children will inherit.

A Path to Renewal: For individuals and families facing their toughest battles, our HOPE Restorative Programs provide more than support—they provide a lifeline. We offer a compassionate path to recovery from addiction and domestic abuse, helping men and women find the strength to heal and reclaim their lives.

Please donate, today!

This holistic model of care from childhood to adulthood and from the city to the great outdoors is how we transform our entire community. You are the reason a child says "wow" at a computer, a teen finds confidence by a campfire, a parent finds stability and a family finds healing.

This GiveMN, please make a gift to the Phyllis Wheatley Community Center. Your donation fuels a generation of leaders, innovators and resilient families.

Thank you for believing in our community and for being a part of this incredible story.
