Why Give
Our Second Decade Campaign: Building hope for Baltimore
The Center for Urban Families has already touched 15,000 individuals in Baltimore, but many, many more need our services. Our building no longer fits our current program goals, and there is inadequate space for the growth we anticipate. We believe it is imperative that all our work be done in one location, where the integration of services is seamless. And as we do this work, we will build a national training and technical assistance model so that other urban centers can successfully emulate our programs in places of need across the country.
Why give to CFUF?
With a proven record of success, CFUF has helped thousands of low-income Baltimore residents to find and maintain employment.
CFUF’s innovative programs in Responsible Fatherhood, Family Services, and Workforce Development serve as an example to other organizations in the field.
CFUF is expanding! The organization is moving to a new headquarters and plans to double the number of individuals served by 2012.
Our vision is to serve 20,000 individuals by 2012, doubling our services to the citizens of Baltimore on an annual basis. Our Second Decade Campaign is a $8 million campaign for the future. Our new home will be a building that will allow for expanded office, training, and conference space, computer labs, and flex areas that can be adapted for new programs.
In our new headquarters, 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 programs and G.E.D. preparatory classes, 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.
