HELP BRING THE PARKVILLE PROMISE TO LIFE
Be part of the Parkville Promise. Every gift moves us forward.
Parkville Promise is a $1.1 million campaign shaped by real contractor pricing and tied directly to the mission‑driven spaces our community needs. This investment is The EPICENTER’s portion of a broader $9 million redevelopment of the Parkville campus in partnership with Mountain Christian Church. With this funding, we will complete core community spaces like a welcoming café, choice‑style food pantry, showers, youth classrooms, and green space—all designed to restore dignity and create opportunity. The plans are approved, the vision is clear, and now is the moment to turn this promise into progress for Parkville.

Join the local community
serving hundreds of people every month
When hardship strikes, community members face more than poverty—they lose hope. Education is interrupted, nutrition is scarce, and families lack basic safety nets. The EPICENTER stands in the gap—providing childcare solutions, employment resources, care—and as a Champion (monthly giver) or one-time donor, you step in to bring transformative change.
You help restore dignity, opportunity, and a future.
At The EPICENTER, our programs walk alongside children, families, and individuals to help them thrive. From safe after-school programs and summer camps for kids, to life skills coaching, job connections, food pantries, health services, and recovery support, every program is designed to meet practical needs while building hope and community.
Champion a chair is a community focused initiative designed to invite community members like you into seeing the transformation we all desire among our neighbors in poverty. By empowering people right in your own neighborhoods, this program exists to break cycles of poverty and heal broken communities.
MEET THE COMMUNITY CHANGING LIVES
Our Champions are generous, passionate, and determined people who fight for the wellbeing of others — like you.
Together, we have already transformed over 13,000 lives through holistic community center programming. Stand with us and change thousands more. You’re going to fit right in.
To be able to help right in our own community was just so exciting. I’ve been a donor since the beginning… it’s being able to take care of the people of home.
Supporting the Epicenter is such a joy because it truly shines as a light in the community. Every time I drive down Route 40, I see the building illuminated so beautifully at night.
To me, it’s more than just lights—it’s a powerful metaphor for what the Epicenter represents: a bright beacon of hope and strength for the community.
One of the simplest ways I support the Epicenter is through Champion a Chair.
When I learned that just $25 a month could directly impact community members, it was a no-brainer.
I’ve been a proud supporter for nearly four years now, and it’s been an honor to invest in such meaningful work.
