Dedicated to enhancing the lives of residents in the South Dallas and Fair Park neighborhoods.
About Us
It started with a Vision…
Linda Walker had a vision to provide the neighborhood children of the South Dallas and Fair Park areas, with a positive environment and positive role models.
Thus, in 1986, a donated two-bedroom apartment on Jeffries Street became the Learning Center. Control Data Corporation donated computers and the Crime Watch Committee volunteered their time to tutor the neighborhood children each day.
