CYNTHIA NEWBILLE, RICHMOND CITY COUNCIL, EAST END 7TH VOTER DISTRICT Supporters of the Storefront for Community Design, Since our founding in 2011 in Richmond’s East End community, the Storefront for Community Design has conducted 131 pro bono design plan consultations for individuals, organizations, and businesses throughout the City of Richmond. We’ve assisted 7 neighborhoods through the design, facilitation and implementation of community visioning workshops and we have provided more than 30 educational opportunities free to the public. Whether helping an elderly neighbor walk through the guidelines for adding a new porch to her historic home, deciding what type of streetscape fits the vision for a neighborhood, or assisting a new home owner with the historic tax credit process, Storefront volunteers have been second-to-none lending their expertise for the betterment of our city as a whole. As one of the founders and supporters of the Storefront for Community Design, I understand the importance of meeting people where they are, and helping bring vision and direction to grassroots ideas that continue to make Richmond a place people want to live and raise their families. I invite you to learn more about Storefront for Community Design, through this, our first annual report, and consider becoming a volunteer, donor or supporter. With thanks, Cynthia Newbille, COUNCIL MEMBER, CITY OF RICHMOND 4 LETTERS OF SUPPORT LETTER FROM CANDICE STREETT & VERONICA FLEMING, VIRGINIA LOCAL INITIATIVES SUPPORT CORPORATION Friends of Storefront, Virginia Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) is dedicated to helping community residents transform distressed neighborhoods into healthy and sustainable communities of choice and opportunity—good places to work, do business and raise children. The design and organizing abilities Storefront brings to the city makes them a good partner for our efforts in North Richmond. We were pleased to offer Storefront financial support to continue the organizing and commercial corridor improvement initiatives that have been a part of their portfolio from their founding in 2011. Since our work began together in the North Side, we have seen monthly community clean-ups initiated by local neighborhood watch members (with more than 100 bags of trash collected to date), re-engagement from business and property owners, closer partnership with the Richmond Police Department, the development of a business directory, and the neighborhood’s first large scale piece of public art installed. A façade improvement initiative and shop local strategy is also underway. We look forward to what the next year brings and congratulate Storefront on their inaugural annual report. In Support, Candice Streett, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Veronica Fleming, SENIOR PROGRAM OFFICER LETTERS OF SUPPORT 5 ABOUT STOREFRONT Storefront for Community Design is need for people in her district to have access to Plan program is a consultation during which Richmond, Virginia’s community design center. information about the benefits and parameters volunteers provide guidance to applicants on Founded and assisted by a dedicated group of historic district designation at state and local projects ranging from building a shed to designing of public servants, architects, designers and levels.
