Voices from the Community

The NMTC allowed us to build a YMCA in one of Raleigh’s poorest communities. Because of the Y’s commitment to enter the market, we also attracted a new public school, 120 affordable housing unit’s and are in the planning phase of commercial development to bring jobs and job training to this campus. Non of that would have happened without NMTC.
