Govans Ecumenical Development Corporation (GEDCO) Receives $2 Million Gift from the Yield Giving Open Call
We are elated to announce that GEDCO has received a generous donation from Ms. MacKenzie Scott and Yield Giving, which has had a significant impact on our organization. Our project was selected from among 6,353 applications from all 50 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico after a process of multiple levels of review, feedback, and diligence involving peer applicants and an external Evaluation Panel recruited for experience relevant to this cause.
With this newfound support, GEDCO has transitioned from needing a lifeline to having a strong support line. Our mission of providing affordable housing, supportive services, and emergency assistance to the community has been validated by this award, signifying our impact within Baltimore. These funds will not only enable us to continue our mission, but they will also help us strengthen our financial and organizational infrastructure. We are grateful to our donors, partners, and the GEDCO family for their unwavering support and belief in the impactful work we do in Baltimore.
