We Need Your Help…Now!
To
Build…Lives…Futures…of
Safety, healing and growth for Black and BIPOC youth from the Rondo community….We will do this by rebuilding and replacing the outdated, unsafe Jimmy Lee Recreation Center with a new” One-Stop” safe, healing-centered Jimmy Lee Recreation Center 2.0 by 2026. This center will be open year round, evening and weekends giving Black and BIPOC youth and community members from Rondo the tools needed to stay on pathways to healthy, stable futures of opportunity.
What?
We have raised $4.3 million ($1.5 million from private donors and $2.8 million from the city).
We need $10 million to rebuild. – Soon legislators will vote on whether to invest $5.7 million in our Rondo youth and the community
Now is the time to reach out to Rondo legislators, Senator Sandy Pappas and Representative Samakab Hussein – scan in the QR code to get a copy of a letter to email to Senator Pappas and Representative Hussein. Both of these legislatures are very supportive, but they need to hear from you to tell their colleagues how much the community is behind this request --
Give us a call at the JKM, 651-558-7815 or 763-442-5487
WHY?
We can’t afford to lose another talented black life to violence – we can’t afford to let the innocent hope of our babies get darkened by the inequities and trauma of not achieving their dreams – Now is the time to join together to create the place where the dreams of youth will become a reality each and every day – at the new Jimmy Lee Recreation Center 2.0.
Scan the QR Code – write to Senator Pappas and Representative Hussein today!
Your support is beyond appreciated.
