The Malone Center

Our Story

The Malone was founded in 1955 through a reorganization of the Lincoln Urban league. The league founders were determined to improve social and economic conditions and increase understanding between all races.

Initially founded during a time in our history when civil rights for African Americans were extremely limited, the league founders, both black and white, were determined to improve social and economic conditions and increase understanding between all races. They believed that enhanced understanding between all groups of people would create a better community.

For decades, Malone has served neighboring families, youth, seniors and the Lincoln community with inclusive, social, cultural, educational, employment and welfare services. Mr. Clyde T. Malone was the Executive Director of the Lincoln Urban league following Mr. Millard Woods, our founder.

Our Vision

To create unity and prosperity throughout Lincoln while honoring our African American heritage. Our mission is to eliminate multi-generational poverty in Lincoln.
