Center & Garden About Us
Welcome to the dream turned reality, a labor of love born from the shared vision of the Sargent family. Comprising parents, Mathew and Tamiko, and their daughter Tiffany Lake, the Sargent family members are passionate advocates for community well-being and inclusivity. Fueled by a desire to create a space that fosters connection, empowerment, and positive change, the Sargent family embarked on the journey of establishing this center and garden.
With diverse backgrounds in education, social work, and community development, the family brings a wealth of knowledge and dedication to the city of Kennedale. Grounded in the belief that a strong community is built on shared values and active participation, the Sargents invite residents to join them in shaping a vibrant hub that reflects the unique spirit and needs of our community.
Together, they are committed to making the Irene Sargent Multicultural Community Center and Community Garden a place where everyone feels welcome, supported, and inspired to contribute to the collective well-being of our neighborhood.
