What does “A Place to Grow, A Place to Belong" Mean for Imagine Academy Corp?

Every young person deserves a safe place to play, grow, and move. Our youth development center is more than a building—it is a place to feel belonging, a launchpad for potential, and opportunities to grow - Confidence, Strength and Friendships - for many young people in our community.

What are the benefits of "A Place To Belong?"

The needs of our youth have never been greater. With more families seeking support, and more kids needing mentorship, enrichment, and belonging, our current space can no longer keep up. This campaign will allow us to expand, modernize, and create a future-ready youth development center that ensures every child has the opportunity to thrive.

Respite services for children with physical and neurological differences are difficult for families to find. Imagine Academy is providing a safe, respectful and responsible inclusive program for ALL Children to Belong. With additional space, our outreach efforts will include further into Dane County, Rock County, and Green County. Respite services at Imagine Academy allow family care givers an opportunity to meet their own needs while knowing that their children are also gaining confidence, strength and friendships.
