A place to belong

More Than a Building.
A Brighter Future for All.

Imagine a place where asking for help doesn’t mean figuring out where to go next. A single destination where individuals and families can walk through one door and find the resources, relationships, and opportunities they need to build better lives.

The Mall of Dreams is our vision for a walkable campus that brings together Summit County’s nonprofit organizations, foundations, and community service providers. Each organization could have its own space—from storefronts in the central mall to larger, standalone buildings—creating a collaborative community where people can discover support, services, and opportunities.

Imagine if...

One Walk Through the Door Could Change Everything.

Imagine You Need Help

You walk into a beautiful, welcoming mall—not knowing where to start. Instead of being handed a list of phone numbers, you find people ready to listen. A few steps away could be help with housing, healthcare, childcare, recovery, education, employment, or family support. You can meet people face-to-face and find your next step without having to navigate everything alone.

Imagine You Run a Foundation

Your organization is doing meaningful work, but you need expertise, volunteers, funding connections, or another kind of support. Imagine walking down the promenade to speak with a neighboring nonprofit, learning from a more experienced leader, sharing resources, or building a joint solution to a challenge neither organization could solve alone.

Imagine Learning Together

Picture scheduled mastermind gatherings, workshops, and roundtables where nonprofit founders, board members, business leaders, and community experts share practical knowledge. Topics might include fundraising, governance, grants, financial stewardship, program design, volunteer recruitment, and measuring outcomes. Organizations could grow stronger together while keeping their own missions and identities.

A place to find help. A place to offer help. A place to belong.

Services and support under one roof

Different Needs. Shared Opportunity.

The future Mall of Dreams could make these resources easier to find by bringing experienced providers together in one connected place.

A Place Where Nonprofits Can Grow, Too.

Imagine launching a nonprofit with a big mission but limited space, resources, or connections. At the Mall of Dreams, a growing organization could begin in a shared workspace or small office, connect with experienced leaders, and access a community of people who understand the challenges of building something meaningful.

As its programs, team, and community impact grow, that nonprofit could move into a larger storefront or office—and eventually, where appropriate, a dedicated building on the campus. Shared meeting rooms, learning events, mentorship, and collaboration could help organizations make the most of their resources at every stage.

Our vision is to create room for organizations to start, strengthen, collaborate, and expand—without losing the unique mission that brought them here.

A Beautiful, Welcoming Community Campus

The Mall of Dreams will feel like a mountain village—with the warmth and charm of Park City, designed to inspire hope. From an indoor mall with inviting storefronts and offices to larger foundation buildings and transitional housing, every space will serve a purpose.

Participating organizations could have their own dedicated space while benefiting from proximity to other nonprofits, service providers, volunteers, and community partners.
