You know Tower Grove Community Development Corporation for our work in every aspect of housing development. One thing you may not realize is that TGCDC, in partnership with DeSales Community Development and the South Grand Community Improvement District, also helps beautify the area. Plants, flowers and a generally nice-looking neighborhood improve the quality of life for everyone and make it a place people want to visit. As you can see, the medians along South Grand need some serious help. All our funding goes to our housing development activities. That means we have some serious fundraising to do to keep up with the ongoing expenses related to maintaining the medians while we look for a long-term solution. We need your help.
