Tenderloin Neighborhood Development Corporation

I had the privilege last Friday both to visit San Francisco and to learn about the great work of the Tenderloin Neighborhood Development Corporation (TNDC), a non-profit that houses 2,500 extremely low-income people—seniors, children, people with disabilities, low-income wage earners, people with AIDS, families and immigrants—in 1,800 apartments and residential hotel rooms in 25 buildings in San Francisco's Tenderloin neighborhood.

I also participated in a walking tour of the neighborhood, which allowed me to grasp first-hand the signficant role TNDC continues to play in serving multiple populations.  Visit the TNDC web site to take a virtual tour or to learn how to schedule a walking tour while in San Francisco.

TNDC will celebrate its 27th birthday during a May 30, 2008 dinner.
