Saint Anthony Community Outreach Center has a new name

Posted: Updated:

LOUISVILLE, KY. (WDRB) -- The old Saint Anthony Community Outreach Center has a new name.  Thursday, the center becomes West Louisville Youth Space.

It offers safe after-school resources and food for needy children in the Portland, Russell, and Shawnee neighborhoods.

Youth Space will also have new leadership as Pat Mathison, the head of Mogul Magazine, takes on the role of Executive Director of the non-profit.

The center almost closed in May because of a lack of funding, but a public campaign and some major donors helped the doors stay open.
