During a summit outlining the next steps in the ongoing transformation of the Englewood community, organizers today unveiled the Englewood Quality-of-Life Fund to raise much-needed funds for community projects. The campaign is live now until #GivingTuesday, November 29, at http://englewoodqualityoflife.com. The group already has secured a $10,000 matching grant from an anonymous donor to jumpstart this fundraising effort.
