Contribute to the “Do Good” Plaza Project
The Do Good Plaza will be a place of reflection, inspiration, and action — a tribute to Braden Caldwell’s life and the powerful mantra he lived by: Do Good.
Located on the Wassmuth Center campus near 9th street, this meaningful new space will honor Braden’s legacy and offer our community — especially youth — a place to gather, reflect, and recommit to making the world better. With thoughtful landscaping, art, and spaces for connection, the plaza will embody the spirit of compassion and humanity Braden carried every day.
We invite you to be part of this vision. Learn more about the project and help bring the Do Good Plaza to life with a gift today.
