  • Living Here in Allentown
    LIVING HERE IN ALLENTOWN BEYOND THE RED DOORS Red Door Publications Allentown, PA Copyright © 2005 by Red Door Publications. All rights reserved. Red Door Publications is a recognized student organization at Muhlenberg College, in Allentown PA. Photos as credited Send correspondence to: Red Door Publications Muhlenberg College 2400 Chew Street Allentown, PA 18102 Printed in the United States of America ABOUT THIS BOOK When in Allentown, do as Allentonians do. Need some help? We’ve assembled a fool-proof guide to get you started. Written by college students for college students, Living Here in Allen- town picks up at the edge of campus—the world beyond the Red Doors. We show you around your new hometown, from its greasy spoons to its drive-in theatres. The book was born out of frustration. Most Muhlenberg students confine themselves to campus. The brave make it as far as the strip malls off Cedar Crest Boulevard, but few of us ever leave the West End. Downtown Allentown, in particular, hardly regis- ters in the Muhlenberg mind. The guide is meant to change all this—to burst the infamous “Muhlenberg Bubble.” The book took shape in a fall 2004 Muhlenberg College course, “Print Production.” You could say that this guide—Living Here in Allentown—is the 21 students’ final project. Editors, researchers, graphic designers, food critics, publicists, ad salespeople—we were all of these over the course of a semester. We liked it enough that we’ve formed a group, Red Door Publications, to update the book and to work on new projects. We wandered the city—tasted the soup at the Shanty, rode the Dorney Park roller-coasters—so that you, too, would venture be- yond the Red Doors.

The Rider-Pool Foundation wants to ensure that the residents in that area of downtown Allentown also benefit from this renaissance. We convened local funders to support the area’s nonprofit organizations in their collective impact efforts to help the families living in the city’s downtown. We want to encourage community engagement and open dialogue about the work to be done. We know that The Rider-Pool Foundation will lead by example. We started by creating an innovative program called The Rider-Pool Foundation Collective Impact Fellowship that teaches nonprofit and community service directors how to work collaboratively on the issues impacting our citizenry. The Fellowship increases effectiveness by encouraging and providing tools for meaningful collaboration amongst organizations, and creates win-win-win strategies to enable comprehensive community development. In 2016, we welcomed the third class of Fellows who are learning how to effectively address and measurably improve the complex quality of life challenges within the NIZ through a new lens of nonprofit leadership.
