Paul Quinn College, the creator of the Urban Work College Model and one of the nation's most innovative colleges, broke ground on its first new building on campus in 40 years, with support from NMTC financing.
The design and construction of the very first stand-alone Boys and Girls Club. This new facility provides social and educational development, recreational, and nutritional support, as well as life coaching services for 250 children and teens each day.
The construction of a new facility for ChildSafe, a children’s advocacy center that provides care for child survivors of physical, emotional, and sexual abuse and their non-offending family members. The new building will accommodate ChildSafe’s growing staff and their Multi-disciplinary Team Partners. The campus also includes outdoor therapy and activity areas and public park space.
Texas Mezzanine Fund and National New Markets Fund provided $13 million and $14 million NMTC loans, respectively, to help finance a $28.3 million expansion project. This project will double the overall facility to 204,000 sq. ft., more than double the food storage capacity, and triple the cold storage space available for healthy fresh and frozen foods. A new pavilion will be constructed for new community service programs and weekly farmer’s markets.
