For decades, Davey Lopes Recreation Center has been more than just a place to play.. It’s been a home, a safe haven, and a foundation for youth development in our community. Located in an area surrounded by social services and a growing homeless population, our kids face challenges beyond their years. But inside our doors, they find mentorship, structure, and a strong sense of family.

From our basketball programs that teach discipline and teamwork to our annual community cookout “Peace & Love Day” to creative initiatives like Art in the Park, we are committed to uplifting the next generation and giving them the tools to thrive despite their circumstances. But we can’t do it alone. Your donation directly fuels opportunities for our youth, ensuring they have access to quality programs, equipment, and experiences that shape their futures. Join us in making a lasting impact.. because when our kids thrive, our community thrives.
