CSA Joins Local Non-Profits in Winning City Fund 3rd-Round Funding

Already enjoying City Fund support for the Building Futures Construction Pre-Apprenticeship program, the Community Services Agency in June won a continuing grant to help support low-income DC residents entering apprenticeship programs and jobs in construction. “We are very gratified to be chosen to continue this work with the help of The City Fund, and the Community Foundation of the National Capital Region,” said CSA Executive Director Kathleen McKirchy. “The Building Futures program provides job readiness and occupational skills training and job placement to those needing a boost into good-paying stable careers.” The City Fund was created in 2013 with unanimous support from the Mayor and DC City Council and is funded by the District government.  Through program support and capacity building grants, the Fund  supports effective nonprofits working to make the District of Columbia a more healthy, stable, and vibrant place to live for all its residents.
