EDCO Communities

Earlier this week EDCO Communities shared a COVID-19 update letter with our fixed income senior residents. For our affordable housing colleagues, we're happy to forward it along, just leave your contact info below. We certainly aren't using the most high tech approach and simply provided prepaid postage envelopes. But most of our senior residents normally bring their rent to our offices and would risk exposure, something we at EDCO found unpalatable. So we addressed it with a simple solution. You can join our efforts with a donation here:

This is a simple way to help. Because of the spike in demand for consumer staples, OurCalling's in kind food donations were down 80% last week. Consider donating as a simple way to begin covering this unexpected need. Wayne and his team at OurCalling do an incredible job and we would love for you to support this important work.

We look forward to seeing our friends and colleagues at Texas Association of Community Development Corporations annual conference next week in Corpus Christi where our CEO, Ken Montgomery, will be moderating a discussion on the importance of Opportunity Zones to community development with Christine Bryant from the Corpus Christi Regional Economic Development Corporation, Gerry Reishen with Coasis Coalition Companies PB LLC and Laura Arce from Wells Fargo.
