For more than a decade, the Greater Englewood Community Development Corporation (GECDC) has worked alongside entrepreneurs, small businesses, residents, and community partners to strengthen economic opportunity in Greater Englewood.

Today, we are going Back to Basics — strengthening our foundation, sustaining the work that matters most, and rebuilding for what comes next.

Throughout 2026, GECDC has continued to support local entrepreneurs and small businesses, connect our community to resources and investment, and steward important economic development initiatives throughout Greater Englewood. We have remained committed to the community even while navigating an important period of organizational transition.

Our goal is to raise $10,000 through this campaign.

These funds will provide flexible support to help us maintain essential operations, continue serving local businesses and entrepreneurs, strengthen our organizational foundation, and responsibly prepare for GECDC's next chapter.

Every gift matters. Whether you contribute $25, $100, $500, or more, you are helping sustain an organization that has remained rooted in Greater Englewood and committed to creating opportunity within our community.

Help us strengthen the foundation. Sustain the work. And build what comes next.

Thank you for investing in Greater Englewood.
