At Center 360, it’s about creating opportunities for people, businesses, and our community to give, partner, sponsor, donate, show up and have a little fun while doing it!


As we head into the final months of the year, we have several ways to get involved. Some involve donating a meal or service. Some involve showing up and having a great time.



The question is: How will YOU show up for Center 360?

OCTOBER

We’re bringing together Parents Night Out and Wellness 360 for an evening designed to give middle school students a safe, engaging space to connect, have fun, and focus on their well-being.


And we’re looking for community partners to help make the evening possible.


We’re seeking restaurants, businesses, wellness providers, and community partners willing to donate meals, snacks, activities, services, or sponsorship support.


Have a restaurant that might provide dinner for our students?


Know a business that would love to sponsor an activity?


Have a service or product that could make the evening special?


Want to contribute to building Wellness Packs for our youth?


We want to hear from you!


Financial donations, in-kind donations, volunteers, and sponsorships are all welcome.


Want to help make Wellness 360 happen as we give parents a few hours to themselves? Let’s connect.

Interested in volunteering your time to contribute to our growth? Email Akeliah at astewart@center360.org to get started!!

NOVEMBER

⛳ THE INAUGURAL CENTER 360 CHARITY GOLF TOURNAMENT


EVERY SWING CHANGES A LIFE


A Swing for Today. A Legacy for Tomorrow.


This November 2nd, we’re hitting the course for the Inaugural Center 360 Charity Golf Tournament at the Rocky River Golf Club in Concord!


Every dollar raised helps Center 360 create opportunities for middle school youth through financial literacy, leadership development, mentorship, career exploration, and life skills - helping young people stay out of trouble so they can build brighter futures.


Whether you’re a golfer, business owner, community partner, or simply someone who believes in the next generation, there’s a way for you to be part of something bigger.


Every swing. Every sponsorship. Every contribution.

It all helps change a life.


Interested in sponsorship opportunities, playing, donating, or getting involved? Reach out to our amazing board member, Eric Lumpkins!!

NOVEMBER thru DECEMBER

🦃🧡 GIVING 360: BECOME A CENTER 360 HOLIDAY ANGEL! ❤️🎁


This holiday season, you can give a little more than a gift. You can give a family a moment to breathe, gather, and celebrate.


This year, Center 360 is bringing back the spirit of the Angel Giving Tree with a Center 360 twist.

Give a family a reason to smile.

Give 360.

DECEMBER

ONE DAY. ONE BIG OPPORTUNITY TO GIVE 360.

Giving Tuesday is December 1, and we’re inviting our community to make Center 360 part of their giving plans.


A Giving Tuesday gift helps us continue creating meaningful opportunities for middle school youth to connect, grow, discover, and thrive.


And remember:

Your gift doesn’t have to be huge to matter.

$25. $50. $100. $360. $1,000.


Every gift adds to the collective impact.


But this year, we’re asking our supporters to do more than make a donation.


Tell someone about Center 360.

Share our campaign.

Invite a friend to give.

Ask your company to match your gift.

Connect us with a potential sponsor.


Because when a community comes together, the impact goes well beyond one gift.

 

🌟 Make a Bigger Impact Year-Round! 🌟


Remember our 36 for $36 Giving Hearts Circle?


We're asking 36 amazing people to commit to giving at least $36 a month to help provide consistent support for Center 360 programs and opportunities throughout the year.


And guess what?!


We're MORE THAN HALFWAY to our goal and would love to close out 2026 meeting 100% of our goal! 🎉


Monthly giving allows us to plan with greater confidence and say YES to more opportunities for our youth - from enrichment experiences and supplies to special events and community programming.


Could you be one of our next Giving Hearts?

The Impact Your Commitment Makes: 

  • $36/month provides a week of healthy snacks for one student in our program.
  • $60/month supports a student’s participation in one enrichment activity, such as culinary arts and workshops.
  • $180/month helps cover transportation costs for field trips and community outings for our youth.
  • $360/month sponsors a student’s participation in our full program for an entire month, including meals, academic support, and wellness activities.


There is always something happening at Center 360, and none of it happens without our incredible community of parents, volunteers, donors, partners, and supporters.


Thank you for continuing to believe in our youth and in the power of providing opportunities that help them stay connected to school, home, and their community.



Stay connected. Stay involved. Stay tuned. 💙
