Mission & Focus Areas
The organization’s stated mission is to promote economic development and infrastructure improvement within the City of Harrisburg. Its website says projects should advance at least one goal such as improving city operations, safety or livability; benefiting principally low- and moderate-income residents or addressing blight; building the tax base; creating permanent jobs; or increasing revenue paid directly to the city. Its guiding principles include funding projects rather than operations, leveraging public and private funds, accountability, measurable outcomes, neighborhood preservation and inclusion.
Projects listed on the organization’s website include blight remediation, housing rehabilitation, a health center renovation, emergency-services headquarters renovation, a senior-living project, and infrastructure and community improvements. These examples indicate the range of projects it has supported; the sources do not provide grantees’ own mission statements.
Grantmaking
The 2023 filing reports 10 grants totaling $106,455. The 2024 and 2025 filings report no grants. The organization’s website states that it had awarded $10.2 million since 2016, but gives no year-specific breakdown for that figure.
Examples shown on the website include a $5,487,291 grant to the City of Harrisburg for the Capital Region Water Multi-Modal Collaborative Project; $500,000 grants for blight remediation, a corporate campus expansion, a playground upgrade and other projects; and grants of $350,000 for a housing rehabilitation project, $250,000 for a theater renovation, and $100,000 for a senior-living project.
The website describes an application process with project-specific requirements and says applications would not be reviewed unless all required information was received. It lists infrastructure, economic development and community-building grant programs. However, given the 2025 filing, the website’s application information should not be treated as current.
