Dundalk Renaissance Corp., Neighbor

The Dundalk Renaissance Corporation is a non-profit, community-based membership organization and community development corporation dedicated to revitalizing the greater Dundalk community.  <br><br>DRC&#39;s mission is to develop and implement community-endorsed plans to revitalize, improve and promote Dundalk&#39;s neighborhoods, economy, and quality of life.  As a 501 (c) 3 organization, we utilize grants, loans, and tax-deductible contributions to fulfill our mission.<br><br><strong>Housing</strong>  We work to boost renovation standards and home values through incentive grants for current homeowners and high-quality, historic, green renovations to attract new buyers.  Creating opportunities for people at many income levels, we seek to greatly expand Dundalk’s market appeal.  

<strong>Main Street  </strong>Dundalk’s historic shopping area and town center embody our overall community’s small-town feel.  We work with businesses and residents to support our stores and attract new ones through promotional events, marketing, business development, and façade improvement grants. 

<strong>Greening</strong>  Reviving the Greening of Dundalk tree-planting initiative that began 20 years ago, we organize volunteers to reduce pollution, increase environmental consciousness, enhance our parks, and make Dundalk more beautiful and sustainable.

<strong>Planning</strong>  DRC originated from a community planning process and we continue to seek implementation of larger-scale revitalization proposals and to promote inclusive, sound planning.
