Building stronger community together.

We are stronger together, and given all the challenges we face as a community, isolation is simply something we cannot afford. With few public meeting spaces in town, Oak Street Community Center has a unique opportunity to help. With your financial partnership, we can complete renovations to our center that will provide spaces for local clubs, groups, and enrichment programs to meet, as well as an accessible space for our local seniors to gather and build community.
