Founded in 2018, Owenwood Farm and Neighborhood Space is a shared space where we work alongside our neighbors to meet the diverse needs of residents living in Far East Dallas (75228). We serve children, families, and seniors living in multi-generational poverty, and the unemployed and underemployed, among others in our community.

Welcome to Owenwood!
A message from Owenwood's Board of Directors:
We invite you to join us in empowering our community this North Texas Giving Day!
Your kindness helps us continue creating a stronger, more connected community through programs that serve and uplift our neighbors.
Every contribution, big or small, moves our mission forward, and YOU are appreciated!
Our mission is to create equitable opportunities for our neighbors to be known, empowered, and inspired.
Our purpose is to be a catalyst for positive community transformation by promoting equality and economic opportunity for all within zip code 75228 in East Dallas.
“Keep Doing What You Do” - Our most pressing need is operating support. Providing operating support will help us keep the lights on and the programs running at Owenwood. Your unrestricted gift can also help us continue low cost space sharing for our nonprofit partners-in-residence, helping meet broader community needs and avoid duplicating existing services.
Diaper Distribution - Every month, we help meet the basic needs of families with small children by distributing diapers in collaboration with Hope Supply Co. However, the need of the community is higher than the generous amount of donations we are receiving, and funding is needed to sustain and continue the great work we are doing.
Owenwood's Preschool Initiative - In partnership with Bella Gardens Early Learning Center, Owenwood is creating a Montessori-inspired program for children ages 18 months to 3 years. At the request of our community, this partnership brings high-quality early childhood education at a more affordable cost, right in the heart of a childcare desert in East Dallas, for those littles who deserve the very best start!
At Owenwood, your dollar goes far! For example:
$10 = a month of yoga classes for a senior
$15 = a month of art classes for a senior
$20 = 2 emergency food boxes for 2 families
$30 = one month’s worth of diapers and sanitary products for a family
$30 = adult literacy classes to 10 adults per week for a month
With a monthly gift in these amounts, your gift can help sustain our vital programming all year!
