At the heart of my philanthropic efforts is the goal to ensure residents on the South Side of Syracuse – the neighborhood where I grew up – have access to affordable housing, access to after-school activities and childcare, and improved access to transportation.
The South Side Community Growth Foundation aims to bring lasting positive impact to the South Side neighborhood. By connecting neighbors, organizations and government, and investing in the neighborhood, the Foundation will help everyone access the resources they need to thrive, support the South Side’s children, and secure a bright future for the community.
As we work alongside neighbors, partners, and supporters to learn more about challenges that our South Side neighbors face, my hope to help address immediate needs and lay groundwork for sustained improvement.
