From Part Time Administrative Assistant to Deputy Director, Tasha Gresham-James celebrates 7 years with Dundalk Renaissance. Tasha Gresham-James started with us part time in July of 2014 as a part time administrative assistant while her two young kids were in school.  She was looking for something simple after her time working in the mayor’s office in Baltimore City under Sheila Dixon and Stephanie Rawlings-Blake.  While working in the mayor's office, Tasha saw how the City utilized their CDCs as a way to help build stronger communities and wanted to see first hand how Baltimore County could do the same.  She quickly proved [...]

Jim Petry is a Trailblazer!   Jim purchased his row home in North Point Village last December, and his settlement was the very first to include our $5,000 Golden Key Grant. Working with his real estate agent, Donna Bertoni of RE/MAX Components in Dundalk, and Jen Wassmann, our DRC Housing Projects Coordinator, they diligently navigated the grant process that was new to all of them, since the $5K Golden Key Grant was offered for the first time at the Dundalk Housing Fair and Neighborhood Tours last September. (Learn more about our home buyer grants here (http://www.unexpecteddundalk.com/events/housing-fair-neighborhood-tours/home-buyer-grants-counseling/). Furthermore, Donna helped Jim earn another $5K grant from a second source, so he had $10K in grants at the settlement table!

The Erickson’s were in need of a new kitchen. Maxine says, “We’ve been talking about a kitchen update for many years but it never seemed to be the right time, financially.” That was until they learned about DRC’s the Vibrant Neighborhoods Renovation Loan (home improvement loan).   What they got was a makeover!  “I can’t thank the DRC enough for helping us to finally make our tired, out-of-date kitchen, now one I love to be in. I am looking forward to future programs sponsored by the DRC. I love what they’re doing for the neighborhood!”  “When we heard about the program, we knew we had to find out [...]
