Our Second Decade Campaign: Building Hope for Baltimore
Our Second Decade Campaign is a $8 million campaign for the future.
In the coming years, CFUF intends to enhance and expand the critical services we are providing to the citizens of Baltimore – with the goal of doubling the number of lives we touch during our next decade of successful operation.
In October 2007, the Center for Urban Families launched its Second Decade Campaign: Building Hope for Baltimore, a campaign to raise $8 million in support of our new headquarters—a new 32,000 square foot building at 2201 North Monroe Street, allowing for growth of our direct services and the establishment of an endowment for the organization. The building opened in October 2009, allowing us to consolidate our programs into one location, making us more efficient.

With the building’s expanded capacity, we will significantly increase the number of fathers, mothers, and families that we serve. We will provide many more, and more frequent, classes, offer additional computer training and job search services, increase our literacy and G.E.D. preparatory programs, hold on-site job fairs and workshops on housing and financial literacy, and expand customized employer training. These are just a handful of examples of what we will be able to do.
We are in the closing stages of the campaign, but need your help in raising the final $274,000. We invite you to join us to make our vision a reality for Baltimore. Click here for more information about giving to Our Second Decade Campaign.
