Help MidTown, Inc. reach our 2019 matching grant challenge!

$200

raised by 1 people

$20,000 goal

MidTown is a microcosm of Columbus in the heart of the city. It is diverse, in population and in use. 

MidTown is a patchwork of neighborhoods, commerce and recreation. Its development spans almost two centuries and today MidTown is a laboratory for small-scale, incremental development, and for active transportation and the development of connected places. 

MidTown is an authentic community where people live, work, bicycle, walk, run or play, worship, attend school and shop.

But we have more work to do to see it come fully alive. And that is why MidTown, Inc. was created. To create initiatives and programs that will ensure the community reaches it's greatest potential. 


_____________________And your support makes it possible!___________________________


This year we have been given an exciting challenge by an anonymous donor who loves MidTown. If we raise $100,000 in operating support it will be matched by $100,000. Meeting this challenge will ensure that our work will continue, strengthen and grow. 

We have met just over half of our goal and we need your help to raise the rest. 

This matching grant is made possible by the Community Foundation of the Chattahoochee Valley, Inc.
