Tis The Season For Giving…
Consider Making A Tax Deductible Contribution To
Wheeler Creek Community Development Corporation



The choices are incalculable. The number of non-profit organizations vying for your financial support during this holiday season can be overwhelming. Respected organizations that represent national constituencies have the resources to stand head and shoulders above the rest with increased visibility through well placed marketing campaigns.

Wheeler Creek Community Development Corporation (WCCDC) strongly believes that charitable giving is a deeply and very personal expression of one’s individual values and beliefs. We offer local donors an opportunity to contribute in their own community. We give them a chance to see their philanthropic dollars at work. We provide our long distance donors with the opportunity to create a giving strategy that fulfills their personal goals in a real way.

WCCDC reputation as a responsible non-profit is unquestioned. Donors understand and appreciate our organization’s mission. As we work to help residents in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area become self-sufficient by creating real opportunities for them to gain living wage jobs—often for the first time—we need the support of donors, who respect our mission and vision.

Since our inception, we have been providing services to the most needy in our community. Job training and placement, first-time homeownership, youth and adult literacy, small business development, and financial and debt management.

We hope in this season of giving you will see the value in making a tax-deductible contribution to Wheeler Creek CDC. To become a Member of our Charitable Donor Chamber (CDC), please call (202) 574-1508.
