Mr. Jeffrey Thomas Sr. is the youngest child born to Nathaniel and Maggie Thomas. He has always had a caring heart and a deep concern for the people of the community in which he grew up. Jeff has always thought of how he was raised and the actions and lessons of his parents. Those are lessons of love, honor, respect, and hard work. He learned that when a community has these pillars, it is a better and safer community. As the founder and CEO of the Nate and Maggie Community Center, Jeff can continue what his parents started by opening the doors of their home to people in need all those years ago. Jeff attended South High School and participated in the cosmetology classes where he received his degree. He also attended training courses and became an STNA in the state of Ohio. He is also a Free and Accepted Mason. He has taken all his life lessons and applied them to the community center. In a deep desire to want to honor his parent’s legacy and help his community at the same time, the community center was born.

Our Vision

Nate and Maggie's Community Center

Vision Statement

We at Nate and Maggie’s Community Center envision reaching out to every kid and every young adult in the community.

Within five (5) years our goal is to provide a building (safe place) where the youth can come enjoy breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Play basketball, volleyball, football, computer rooms, chess club, home economics, etc. Get them off the street and away from the guns, violence, and drugs. Give them a place to come open their minds, to something other than the street life. Teach them and show them so they can live and survive tomorrow.

Mission Statement

Our mission at Nate and Maggie’s Community Center is to get the youth off the street. Give them a place to come and express themselves. Open their mind and heart to something they like and enjoy. Provide a place of guidance for them to achieve their dreams. Show them, teach them, and watch them achieve.

About Us

Nate and Maggie's community center is a place that is a "Safe Zone". This is a place where the youth of the area can come and study, learn, play, and grow. It is a place where they can escape the dangers of the streets. A place where they can be accepted and cared for.

This community center is an extension of the life lessons of the CEO/Founder Jeffrey Thomas Sr. His father (Nate) and mother (Maggie) were pillars of their community. Always willing to help and nurture all the people they encountered that needed assistance, a kind word, a meal, prayer, or even a simple hug. Showing love to those around them was the mission and the vision was always safety and showing there is a better way of life.

Today, Nate and Maggie's lessons are honored in the form of the community center. This center will provide food and clothing give-a-ways, temporary shelter, meals, classes, computers, music studios, sports, and so much more. Most of all it will be a place that was built on faith, love, and bring peace of mind back to it's members of the community.
