Work will begin in summer 2025 on a major $19 million expansion of our St. Paul Midway YMCA campus to create the Peter J. King Family Foundation Center for Child and Family Wellbeing. 

The new center, scheduled to open in fall 2026, will be located at 530 North Wheeler Street, directly across from our existing Midway YMCA.

This significant investment will have a transformational impact, helping to alleviate local childcare deserts, nurture the wellbeing of families, and develop the childcare workforce Minnesota needs.

Once completed, this state-of-the-art facility will be the hub for our YMCA of the North School Age Care and licensed childcare programs. It will also include spaces for Head Start early childhood programs, as well as provide the community with gathering spaces to strengthen current and future partnerships.

We are eager to provide an even higher level of support to our youth and families through the center. 

We appreciate the support and patience of our members, participants and communities as we complete this substantial project.
