St. Ignatius Catholic Community Joins BUILD Housing Public Action to End the Crisis of Vacant and Abandoned Homes in Our City

On Monday, December 11th at 6:30pm at Greater Harvest Baptist Church (1617 W. Saratoga St), St. Ignatius Catholic Community Justice & Peace representatives joined more than 550 faith & community leaders from across Baltimore as we gathered to press forward on our work to end the crisis of vacant & abandoned homes in our city. BUILD, Mayor Scott and GBC shared updates and concrete next steps on the joint commitment as we work to secure the billions of dollars of investment needed to address this issue. 

On December 11, 2023, BUILD, the City, and GBC celebrated signing an agreement that creates a framework to address Baltimore’s housing crisis once and for all!

More than 550 leaders packed into Greater Harvest Baptist Church on a Monday night in December to show their support for the historic agreement between BUILD, Mayor Scott, and the Greater Baltimore Committee to end the legacy of redlining and invest $3B in our city’s neighborhoods that will more than pay for itself over time.
