Farewell to LISC President Denise Scott; Community Economic Development and Affordable Housing partner convenings; and grants for sports and recreation initiatives.
Program funders and impact investors are vital parts of the community development ecosystem, helping power transformative progress every day. But even with their support, years of unrelenting pressure have taken a toll on community-based organizations. Can funders urgently ramp up operating support, or will communities lose vital parts of their social infrastructure?
Michael T. Pugh Starts as LISC’s CEO; new partnerships in Southwest Philadelphia; affordable housing preservation in the news; and LISC hosts its national FOC convening.
