Philadelphia chinatown development corporation - FY23 congressional community project funding

The Philadelphia Chinatown Development Corporation received a $607,000 Project Grant award from the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) under the Congressional Grants program (CFDA 59.059). This funding will support the organization's efforts to deliver a range of community services and programs in the Chinatown neighborhood of Philadelphia over a 3-year period from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2026. As a non-profit community development corporation, Philadelphia Chinatown Development Corp will use the grant to provide affordable housing initiatives, assist small businesses, preserve cultural assets, and serve underserved populations. The organization has also partnered with other entities as a sub-grantee to increase COVID-19 testing access and vaccine equity for immigrant communities, as well as provide unemployment compensation filing assistance during the pandemic.
