Rise Community Development
LIFTING OUR COMMUNITIES: Rise partners with communities to build stronger, more equitable St. Louis area neighborhoods. By providing capacity-building assistance, housing development services and access to financing, we make the connections between non-profit community organizations, financial institutions and government that make successful neighborhood revitalization possible. Our Vision We partner with local Community Development Corporations to identify those neighborhoods that could benefit from our work. The development of affordable and market-rate housing in these areas energizes the local economy, reduces crime, improves the community’s quality of life and creates an atmosphere that supports the emotional and intellectual development of its children. Through this work, we aim to inspire confidence for private market forces to then follow with further investment. Our Partners Our neighborhood-based partners benefit from the greater financial capacity and expertise we bring to development projects. The partners participate in the project ownership, have the opportunity to gain more hands-on experience in the development process and gain long-term financial sustainability.
