The IMPACT Center, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, was founded to help the Arlington residents and to help the East Arlington neighborhood reach its full potential. Many people in East Arlington have limited resources. They live in Arlington's most densely populated district, which is also its poorest sector, where there is a wealth gap with black and brown families. By forming strategic alliances, starting a social enterprise, and building a multidimensional community center, we will achieve our goals of promoting public health, economic empowerment, educational advancement, and civic involvement.
The IMPACT Center will mostly be funded by hosting sporting events at a newly renovated facility that can serve as Arlington's New Sports Complex. The venue consists of 3 high school basketball courts and 1 NBA court, a workout, training, and a weightlifting zone located on an indoor turf area. Top-tier AAU tournaments, volleyball competitions, and boxing contests will all take place at the venue.
At the IMPACT Center, we are committed to transforming East Arlington by Inspiring Minds, Promoting advocacy, and Community Transformation. Through collaborative partnerships with other organizations, we provide essential services in economics, education, youth advocacy, health and wellness, and civic engagement. Our 501(c)3 non-profit organization empowers local residents to achieve their full potential, and together, we create a stronger, more vibrant community.
