CBN members Rise Community Development, Lutheran Development Group, and North Newstead Association, along with partners DOORWAYS and Efficacy Consulting and Development, have received over $49 million from the Missouri Housing Development Commission (MHDC) to complete 4 affordable housing development projects.
IFF’s Stronger Nonprofits Initiative offers 14 months of capacity building to help People of Color-led nonprofits navigate systemic barriers to accessing capital and real estate opportunities. Ten St. Louis-area nonprofits were chosen to participate in the latest cohort, including CBN members Cornerstone Corporation, North Newstead Association, Northside Community Housing, and Rise Community Development.
In normal times, mid-November is when North Newstead Association would be gathering together to celebrate with their neighbors and supporters at their Annual Community Development Celebration and Fundraiser at the Barnett on Washington. This year, since the pandemic had other plans in mind, NNA is inviting you to instead take a look at what’s been keeping them busy this year as they work harder than ever to support the neighborhoods they serve.
