Every kid deserves a place where they feel welcome.
A place where they can make friends, discover what they’re good at, learn something new, and just be themselves.
That is the vision behind the Cannon Falls Youth Center.
We are working to create a safe, welcoming, all-inclusive space where kids and teens from Cannon Falls and surrounding communities can come together, build friendships, explore their interests, and develop skills that can stay with them for a lifetime.
This won't just be a place to play games.
It will be a place to learn, create, collaborate, and grow.
We envision everything from modern and retro gaming, board games, puzzles, and comic books to technology-based activities, computer building, basic networking, soldering, digital creativity, workshops, tournaments, LAN parties, themed activity nights, and community events.
Our goal is to give young people opportunities they may not otherwise have access to—and to show them that learning can be fun, technology can be exciting, and their future can be bigger than they imagined.
Our fundraising goal is $25,000.
We have already made progress, but we still have $22,900 left to raise.
That may sound like a big number.
But imagine what happens when an entire community comes together.
$25.
$50.
$100.
$500.
Every donation gets us one step closer to opening the doors and giving our kids a place they can call their own.
And if you can't donate, you can still help.

Because this isn't about one person.
It's about our kids.

It's about our community.
And it's about the future of Cannon Falls.
We have an opportunity to create something truly special—something that can serve generations of young people in our community.
Let's give our kids a place to belong.
Let's give them opportunities to learn.
Let's give them somewhere to grow.
Most importantly, let's show them that their community believes in them.
We're asking Cannon Falls and the surrounding communities to help us make this vision a reality.
We have $22,900 left to raise. Will you be part of making it happen?
Donate. Share. Get involved.
Together, we can create something our kids will remember for years to come.
The Cannon Falls Youth Center exists to provide a safe, welcoming, and inclusive environment where young people can connect, learn, grow, and thrive. Through technology, recreation, education, and community engagement, we strive to empower youth with the skills, confidence, and relationships they need to reach their full potential.
We envision a community where every child and teenager has access to a positive space that encourages curiosity, creativity, leadership, and belonging. By fostering meaningful connections and providing opportunities for learning and personal development, we aim to inspire the next generation to become confident, compassionate, and engaged members of our community.
The Cannon Falls Youth Center is more than a place to spend time after school—it is a place where young people feel valued, supported, and inspired.
Our center will provide opportunities for youth to:
We are committed to creating a space where families know their children are safe, where young people are encouraged to be themselves, and where the community comes together to invest in its future.
By partnering with local businesses, schools, volunteers, and community organizations, we seek to build a sustainable youth center that serves generations of Cannon Falls families.
Because every young person deserves a place to belong, a place to learn, and a place to dream.
Together, we're building more than a youth center—we're building a stronger community.
