Last month we held an inspirational evening showcasing individual stories of generosity and service.
Building off of a successful first round of work and through support from Living Cities, the Annie E. Casey Foundation, and the Goldseker Foundation, the Baltimore Integration Partnership (BIP) launched 2.0 in 2014 to deepen anchor institution’s efforts to support area residents, businesses and communities.
Neighborhood change is a critical issue for Baltimore, a city that is seeing strong revival in some areas and continuing decline in others, a city that is both racially and economically polarized.

This will be an interactive deep dive session where participants will further explore three key components of the initiative: People and Health, Infrastructure (neighborhood standard of care), and Financial Products.
