The construction of a new 68,900 sf community center to replace the existing aging building, located in Ogden, Utah, which will expand access to recreational, educational, and community services, enhancing opportunities for residents in a severely distressed neighborhood. The facility serves as a central hub for these efforts, currently offering more than 100 programs, including youth and after-school activities, senior services, fitness and wellness classes, sports leagues, arts and enrichment opportunities, and community events. The facility also includes 16 Head Start childcare slots for very low-income families.
This investment will finance the new construction of a 68,000 square foot community recreation center in Ogden, UT. The new, significantly larger facility—nearly twice the size of the original—will expand its offerings to better serve the surrounding severely distressed neighborhood.
