NDC 2007 Gala a
Success!
Thank you to everyone who
attended, donated to, or sponsored our 2007 Gala.
On November 8, over 200 people joined us at the
American Visionary Art Museum in Baltimore to help us
celebrate the successes of the past year as well as
launch our newest program to provide green design and
sustainable planning assistance to low and moderate
income communities in Baltimore and Prince George's
County. We raised nearly
$40,000 (after expenses) from the
event!
To read more about the event,
and see a list of our sponsors, click here.
And don't forget - next year
the Neighborhood Design Center will be celebrating 40
years of serving the Baltimore area and 15 years in
Prince George's County!
