Our Story
All Hands Cultural Community Center, formerly the East Branch YMCA, was established on February 25th, 2019, after the Metropolitan YMCA Board of Directors donated the facility. This transformation aims to create a vibrant community hub that offers a variety of programs and services. Led by dedicated directors James W. Harris, Lucinda L. Kimbel, and Edward G. Downing, Sr., the center is committed to fostering a safe gathering place for residents and organizations focused on educational, economic, and community development.
