The Coalition advances community economic development solutions that address the inequity of under-resourced communities in the District of Columbia.
A $2,000,000 housing project grant to Local Initiatives Support Corporation anchors the Coalition for Nonprofit Housing and’s recent profile: this funder uses large, project-specific awards to move District of Columbia housing work forward. The 2025 grant list shows a strong emphasis on housing delivery and stabilization, with several awards going to DC-based contractors, development entities, and housing organizations. That mix suggests a funder that works through implementation partners as well as nonprofit intermediaries. The Coalition’s grantmaking sits within a broader strategy of community economic development in under-resourced DC neighborhoods. Its active programs point to housing access, homelessness prevention, landlord participation, resident leadership, and local economic capacity. Recent awards include a $927,070 housing project grant to Rebuilding Together DC Alexandria and a $57,500 housing project grant to Housing Counseling Services Inc, alongside other DC recipients tied to construction, development, and housing support. Leadership is listed under Stephen Glaude, and the foundation reports annual grants of $4,020,710 with total assets of $6,679,309. The pattern across the recent grants shows a local funder that deploys substantial, restricted support in pursuit of housing and neighborhood stability in Washington, DC.
Affordable housing is the clearest through line in the Coalition’s recent awards. A $2,000,000 housing project grant to Local Initiatives Support Corporation and a $927,070 housing project grant to Rebuilding Together DC Alexandria both point to implementation-heavy housing work. The foundation also backs housing-related construction and development partners. It gave $350,000 to Usource Consulting LLC, $245,005 to Angel Contracting Services, and $180,000 to East Capitol St Development LLC, all labeled housing project grants. Housing counseling and stabilization appear in the mix as well. Housing Counseling Services Inc received $57,500, while the Coalition’s active programs include a Landlord Partnership Fund for households with histories of homelessness and a Senior Homeowner Stabilization Program for older DC residents. Beyond housing, the foundation’s program list includes workforce development, small business support, and resident leadership. Those themes are reflected in initiatives such as ELEVATE – Executive Education and DC Community Anchor Partnership, which links anchor institutions with local DC businesses.
