Continuing to serve our members, no matter what's happening in Washington. 

It's been a busy month! CMCA officially started our new fiscal year on October 1, even as the government began its ongoing shutdown. We've been fielding many phone calls from the media, staff, and donors like you, wondering how we are affected. 

The good news is that CMCA programs are able to continue operating! Due to our grant cycles and financial standing, we can withstand this shutdown for some time. If anything changes, we will let you know. 

Our main focus is to continue providing the service our members need, regardless of the noise in Washington.

Providence Landing taking shape

If you've driven down Providence Rd. in Columbia lately, you've probably seen that our Providence Landing development is taking shape! Once finished, these 14 units will be sold at an affordable rate with down payment assistance to families with qualifying incomes. 

Earlier this year, we broke ground on our Stronghold Landing apartment complex in Jefferson City. This complex will feature 40 units of varying sizes, a community room that doubles as a storm shelter, a playground, and a dog park. 

We are also seeking funding for developments in Fulton and Mexico. The lack of affordable housing options remains a problem throughout our service area, and we are committed to helping find solutions. 

Partner with us through CoMoGives

Fundraising is more important than ever right now! Our largest annual campaign, CoMoGives, is coming soon. This year, the campaign will run from December 1 through December 31, and we are aiming to raise $25,00 this year! 

A portion of this year's funds will be used to help cover closing costs for families that purchase a unit at Providence Landing, making their home even more affordable. 

If you'd like to help us reach our goal with a peer-to-peer campaign, a matching gift, or any other way, please reach out to Erica Schmidt, Director of Development and Communication.
