Fairmount CDC
https://www.fairmountcdc.org
Fairmount Community Development Corporation’s mission is to advance the growth and unique character of the Fairmount and Girard commercial corridors, support the business community across the Art Museum District, and partner with adjacent neighborhoods to create a safer, more accessible, connected and equitable community The organization was formed in 1999 by a group of civic-minded Fairmount neighbors who sought to take advantage of the neighborhood improvement opportunities by creating a non-profit community development corporation serving residents and businesses across the Art Museum District, including Fairmount, Brewerytown, Sharswood, Francisville and Spring Garden. The organization was awarded non-profit status in 2001 and completed a resident-driven neighborhood plan in 2003. Although Fairmount CDC has remained a small organization, the diversity of the programming and recent accomplishments speak volumes about the capacity and willingness of the Fairmount CDC to get the job done.
