The children and young adults we serve are confident in their ability to learn, love, and be powerful agents for positive change in our world.

THANK YOU for your support!

Instruments of Peace: A Decade of Peace was a wonderful success on Saturday, May 12th at Hotel Murano. We celebrated with 400 guests and raised over $113,000 to support Hilltop students! Thank you!

Our students are inspiring. Hear Gerdon, Nikole and Chrischin's stories again here!

If you missed the event, you still have time to invest in the lives of Hilltop students! Please contact Ruth Tollefson at rutht@peacetacoma.org or 253-383-0702 for details.

Peace Community Center is a non-profit organization empowering children and youth in the Hilltop neighborhood of Tacoma. Located at the corner of South 21st and Cushman, the Center has been offering a variety of education-centered programs, such as KidREACH and Hilltop Scholars, since 2001. Through programs like these, Peace Community Center is able to academically support students from their first day of Kindergarten through college graduation.

The Center does not do its work alone. Over 360 volunteers dedicate many hours to the Center’s programs each year. Private donors contribute 95% of the annual funding needed to operate the Center. Schools, parents, and other caring individuals in the community partner with the Center in a variety of ways to help provide students with often hard to find holistic support and opportunities so that each child may reach his or her God-given potential.

Please take some time to explore the website to learn more about Peace Community Center and how it serves the Hilltop neighborhood.
