Merlo Community Center is the foundation of our Community Impact work — a place where opportunity, connection, and support come together for the families we serve.
From this space, we lead programs, services, and initiatives designed to strengthen youth and uplift our community. Through mentorship, expanded learning, sports, family engagement, food distribution, and community events, we create pathways that help young people grow, build confidence, and succeed while ensuring families feel connected and supported.
The Community Center also brings neighbors together through community-wide events and coordinated food distribution efforts that help meet essential needs and strengthen the fabric of our community.
At Merlo, every program, event, and partnership is part of a larger mission — creating spaces where youth can thrive, families can find support, and communities can grow stronger together.
Our workshops and classes offer opportunities for learning, creativity, wellness and personal growth for community members of all ages.
Our afterschool enrichment programs give students a vibrant space to boost academics, dive into creative projects, stay active through fun recreation, and build leadership skills that carry into their future.

We offer multiple sports with exciting camps, fast‑paced clinics, and fun community leagues that help young athletes stay active, build confidence, and grow their skills, all supported by dynamic, sport‑specific coaching.
Our educational field trips give students an exciting, hands‑on way to explore new places and ideas, strengthened by engaging academic workshops that help them learn about what they’ll experience before the trip even begins.

Through our Outdoor Equity Program (OEP), in partnership with the California State Parks Department, we expand access to nature-based learning and outdoor experiences — ensuring all youth have opportunities to explore, build confidence, and develop leadership skills.
