Community Empowerment Center moves closer to becoming a reality!



We appreciate the support of friends and community partners as we jumpstart fundraising efforts to make the Empowerment Center a reality at 700 Brandywine Street, SE. Funding challenges and pre-development construction needs slowed our past efforts to create the Center, but we are still forging ahead!

Updated building plans are completed, a portion of our financing is secured, and we've rolled up our sleeves to get the job done--but we need your support to make it happen. Help us reach our community fund goal of $100,000 to help cover construction costs by making a donation to the Empowerment Center Building Fund.

Once complete, the Community Empowerment Center will offer services and programs for people of all ages, in our neighborhood and beyond, including extended day care, GED training and tutoring, employment counseling and cultural programs. Help us create a haven for learning and opportunity to move our community ahead--donate today!
