St. Luke AME Community Development Corporation

The St. Luke AME Community Development Corporation (SLCDC) was established to strengthen and uplift the Harlem community through programs rooted in hope, love, and justice. Guided by faith and a commitment to service, we address the social, economic, and spiritual needs of individuals and families—helping them thrive and build brighter futures.

Our work centers on three pillars:

Hope inspires us to nurture connections, support local businesses, and partner with community organizations that empower our neighbors.
Love drives us to meet the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of those we serve, offering compassion and care that foster healing and stability.
Justice calls us to advocate for equity and opportunity, ensuring that every person—regardless of circumstance—has access to the tools and resources needed to succeed.

Through collaborative partnerships, youth mentorship programs, family support initiatives, and community advocacy, the St. Luke AME CDC works to transform lives and strengthen Harlem from within.

We envision a community where hope unites us, love surrounds us, and justice empowers us all—creating a lasting legacy of equity, opportunity, and shared prosperity.
