11/18/2026 12:00 pm - 11/18/2026 1:00 pmJoin us for a ribbon-cutting ceremony commemorating the 2025 Young Guns community investment project to renovate the STEAM lab at the Dallas ISD Paul L. Dunbar Learning Center!
With support from industry volunteers, community partners, and generous donors, our project team has transformed an underutilized space into a modern learning environment where students can explore STEAM fields (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics) through hands-on experiences.
This project marks our latest completed Dallas Catalyst Project: Mill City investment. Following the ribbon-cutting, we will host a groundbreaking ceremony for the 2026 Young Guns project to revamp the school’s courtyard and playground area.
Registration for this event is now open.
