NKCDC

Thank you Secretary Russell Redding for joining us today in Kensington to see Tusculum Gateway Garden and Ruth Street Garden (Philly Unknown)! We're grateful for the Commonwealth's support and partnership in advancing collaborative, comprehensive, and community-driven development in Kensington.

Join us for our monthly Kensington Business Coalition meeting next Tuesday, July 14th from 10AM-11AM at the Kensington Engagement Center (3000 Kensington Avenue)! This month, we’ll be focusing on the process of establishing a coalition board.

Over the last year, through participatory engagement and collective visioning, local businesses identified a need to come together to form the Kensington Business Coalition to serve as a civic voice for local businesses and to build capacity for local Kensington businesses to support the economic development in Kensington. By working together to help businesses build capacity, establishing a coalition board marks a transition from short-term support toward a long-term community where local businesses work together to co-create their futures.

Are you a small business in Kensington? Kensington Business Coalition meetings are held on the 2nd Tuesday of every month at the Kensington Engagement Center. Come join us!
