Investing in Purpose, Building Brighter Futures

The Skilled Trades Education Center will serve as a year-round learning hub where youth from all backgrounds can explore careers in the trades through guided instruction, hands-on experience, and mentorship. Designed with input from industry professionals, the center will include fully equipped training bays for carpentry, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, welding, and 3D design—giving students practical exposure to real tools, real challenges, and real opportunities.

Your donation directly supports construction costs, equipment, and program development—ensuring we can open the doors to this vital resource as soon as possible. Every gift, large or small, helps lay the foundation for a stronger future—one where young people have the skills to succeed and local businesses have the workforce they need to thrive.

Together, we can bridge the gap between potential and opportunity. Thank you for believing in this mission.
