There is a great need in the city of Belle Glade, FL for economic development, job creation and a place where its
citizens of all ages and backgrounds can come together and safely enjoy recreational activities, sports, entertainments, health and fitness, and personal development opportunities. The city does not have a community center that is equipped to meet the needs of its citizens. The Glades Multi-Use
Community Center is projected to serve more than 17,000 children, youth and families in Belle Glade. The Belle Glade area has been disfranchised during both economic booms and busts. However, this recent economic bust fractured the community the most. The city ranks number seven (7) of "Top 101 cities with the largest city-data.com crime index per police officer and it ranks number twenty seven (27) on the list of "Top 101 cities with the most people
below 50% of the poverty.
Belle Glade is a rural city in Palm Beach County, Florida on the
southeastern shore of the Lake Okeechobee with a population of 17,051 according to the most recent census. Belle Glade combined with the surrounding area is often referred to as "Muck City". Although Belle Glade is part of Palm Beach County, its economic, educational
and personal development problems are disproportional compared to the county and the state of Florida.
The Glades Multi-Use Complex will be a public facility that will create a living, sustainable, enduring space that allows people of all ages and abilities to gather together and share their lives, ideas and experiences, creating a sense of belonging and a deeper commitment to the community. The Glades Multi-Use Complex will have four different goals that include: Helping children, teens and young adults
reach their full potentials (Education), improving the health of children, teens and adults by providing a myriad of personal fitness activities. (Health), Promoting personal finance education and financial independence (Economic Stability) Increasing the economic footprint within the
area, and providing a fun and vibrate environment with activities such as indoor football games and entertainment events at a nominal fee or at no cost
to all Belle Glade citizens (Fun).
The programs such as youth development, childcare, adult learning, healthy living, and education can help strengthening citizens of all ages.
