In 2015, Tower Grove Neighborhoods Community Development Corporation (TGNCDC) completed our framework and vision plan (download here). Part of the plan is to develop relationships and collaborations with other community partners to improve quality of life and better serve our area. Since January 2016, TGNCDC in collaboration with STL Programs has been working on a Community Resource Guide and Directory. The goal of this guide and directory is to provide the neighborhood residents with information on resources and tools available to them within the neighborhoods we serve and surrounding. In an effort to engage the neighborhood residents and promote the effort, TGNCDC initiated a front cover photo contest in which residents could submit photos that best represented the neighborhoods to be the cover of this guide. TGNCDC received many submissions and after much deliberation has chosen a winner. Stefanie Hammond has been chosen as the winner of the contest and her picture will be featured as the front cover! Congratulations! The 2017 Community Resource Guide and Directory will be published in August and distributed by mail (and available online) to over 14,000 residents in the Shaw, Southwest Garden, and Tower Grove South neighborhoods. Thank you again for all of those who submitted photos.
