For 45 years, CSNDC has partnered with residents, businesses, and supporters to strengthen neighborhoods and expand opportunities throughout our community. On October 8, 2026, we invite you to join us as we celebrate this extraordinary legacy at our 45th Anniversary Gala.
Centered on the theme Building Together: Celebrating 45 Years of Community, Legacy and Abundance, the Gala will honor the people, partnerships and shared commitment that have shaped CSNDC since its founding. We will also look toward the future and explore the work we can accomplish together in the years ahead.
“Our 45th anniversary represents much more than a milestone,” stated Harrison Holcomb, Vice President of Fundraising and Impact Analysis. “It’s a celebration of what becomes possible when residents, community partners, funders, and friends unite around a shared vision. The legacy we honor today was built collectively, and the abundance we aspire to for the future will be created the same way.”
Throughout our history, CSNDC has upheld the belief that communities excel when residents are empowered with the resources and opportunities to shape their futures. Our work, encompassing affordable housing, economic opportunities, community leadership, neighborhood development, and environmental resilience, reflects the strength and aspirations of those we serve.
The 45th Anniversary Gala provides a unique opportunity to celebrate our impact, recognize community leaders and partners, reconnect with longtime friends, and welcome new supporters into CSNDC’s expanding network.
We express our heartfelt gratitude to our Presenting Sponsors — United Way of Massachusetts Bay, Winn Companies, and NeighborWorks America — for their contributions to making this milestone celebration possible. Their partnership embodies the spirit of collaboration that has sustained CSNDC for over four decades.
As we mark 45 years, we are especially thankful to the residents, staff, board members, volunteers, donors, and partners who contributed to CSNDC’s story over the years. Every program launched, home created, business supported, and resident engaged contributes to a larger legacy we’ve built together. The Gala will both celebrate our journey and invite us to imagine what we can build next — together.
Please join us. Tickets and tables for the gala are currently available for purchase at csndc45.givesmart.com.
