In Paralives, you're part of a community, and as such, it's your responsibility to help it thrive. That's why one of the goals you should focus on involves donating to the Museum and the Community Center.
If you're struggling with where to find the Community Center and how you can improve it with donations, then don't worry, this guide will cover everything you need to know to ensure the best for you in Paralives.
Paralives Career Wishlist
With many of its jobs still under wraps, Paralives has tons of potential to deliver on career paths that games like The Sims and InZOI are missing.
Where to Find the Community Center in Paralives
The Community Center is in the Castle Plaza. To find Castle Plaza, look for the beach with chairs and umbrellas, and with the water at the bottom of the screen, go up and slightly left.
You'll run into a set of large, connected stone buildings that look like castles with blue-green roofs and a big tree in the courtyard. There's also a set of railroad tracks that come in from a bridge to the side of the courtyard.
On the other side of the tracks is a dilapidated building with vines growing up the side of the walls, plants growing inside on the floor. This is the Community Center and, as you can see, it needs some help.

Community Center Funding Bundle
The Funding Bundle has five different bundles available. Each level isn't revealed until the previous is achieved. The first is 5,000 Paradimes, and it goes up from there.
Donating to this bundle requires Paradimes. When you have the amount required, click the box that says how much is required, and it will donate it.
Community Center Art Bundle
In the Art Bundle for the Community Center, there are four levels to focus on:
- Art Bundle 1
- Art Bundle 2
- Famous Painting Bundle 1
- Famous Painting Bundle 2
To start, you need to focus on Art Bundle 1, which requires any painting worth more than $300. If you have an artsy character, you can have them create one for this donation.
Otherwise, paintings can be found by digging up Buried Chests around town. These look, just how they sound, like wooden chests partially sticking up out of the ground. When your character digs one up, they receive a random item, one of which can be a painting.
The Famous Paintings will be rarer, but can also be found this way. These items should be automatically placed in your Household Inventory. The first Famous Paintings you need are:
- Landscape with the Good Samaritan
- Emma Hart as Circe
- Woman Combing her Hair
Community Center Technology Bundle
Coming in as the smallest donation bundle is the Technology Bundle. For this, you only need to donate the Gamini gaming set. These items can be purchased from the shop by pressing Tab, selecting the orange tab at the top left of the screen for Furnishings, and then placed in your Household Inventory to donate. The prices are:
- Gamini Computer - 1508 Paradimes
- Gamini Desk - 160 Paradimes
- Gamini Office Chair - 297 Paradimes
The computer can be found in the Electrical Devices tab with the lightning bolt symbol. Desks are in the Surfaces section with a table icon. Chairs are in the Seating section, with the Office Chair symbol being a chair with wheels.
Community Center Food Bundle
The food bundle is a little more difficult than it sounds. There are three bundles revealed in the beginning, and two revealed after others are complete:
-
Cake Bundle
- Confetti Cake
- Chocolate Cake
- Cheesecake
-
Simple Meal Bundle
- Microwaved Hamburger
- Spaghetti Marinara
- Ham Sandwich
- Gourmet Meal Bundle
-
Common Mushroom Bundle
- Oyster
- Porcini
- King Trumpet
-
Rare Mushroom Bundle
- Black Trumpet
- Turkey Tail
The Gourmet Meal Bundle and Rare Mushroom Bundle are revealed after the Simple Meal Bundle and Common Mushroom Bundle have been donated, respectively.
Mushrooms can be found randomly growing in the ground. If you think you see some, hover the mouse over them, and they will highlight white, and a box will pop up telling you the type of mushroom.
When you see some, click them and select Collect, and your character will go to them and pick them up. The mushrooms will automatically be placed in your Household Inventory.
Cakes and meals can be made at home after reaching a high enough cooking level, or they can be purchased from a cafe in town. To cook at home, select the fridge and click Cook. The food menu will pop up, and you can choose the meal you want to make. You will want to make these when your character isn't hungry, so they don't immediately eat the food you're attempting to donate.
How to Make a Donation to the Community Center in Paralives
To have your character donate an item to the Community Center in Paralives, first, you will need to make sure that the item is in your Household Inventory.
Once the items you want to donate are in your inventory, go to the Community Center and select the book that represents the bundle for which you have the required items. This will automatically open your Household Inventory. Select the items (one at a time) and push the blue Donate button in between the two boxes.
You don't have to have all items in a bundle at the same time, and to save you repeating items you've already donated, a green checkmark box will appear on items you've already given.
After the whole bundle is donated, the question mark box next to the bundle will change to an image or Paradime amount to show your reward for completing the bundle. Click the box to collect the reward.
How to Put Items into Household Inventory in Paralives
To put items in your Household Inventory that aren't already there, access the build menu by pressing Tab, then select the item you wish to add/donate.
A bar will show up at the bottom of the screen featuring a picture of the item, a few icons, and a checkmark. Select the three dots next to the checkmark, and a box will appear with an option to Add to Inventory, select this and the item will be in your Household Inventory.
The box icon on the left of the screen will now show you all items in your inventory.
