Rondo CLT in Community
Rondo CLT's Block Party 
On July 22nd, we hosted a block party on Oxford Street outside our office. There was live music, food trucks (West Indies Soul Food, Jones N Your Bones BBQ, and 2 Scoops Ice Cream Eatery), community vendors (Lip Esteem, Babycake's Book Stack, TB'z Customz, and the MN Tool Library), a beer garden, and lots of games. Thank you to everyone who attended! It was a great event. 
National Night Out
On August 1st, Rondo CLT celebrated National Night out with the House of Hope Presbyterian Church. We had fun tabling, connecting with neighbors, and seeing MN State Representative Kaohly Vang Her (64-A)!   
Kresge Foundation Tour 
On July 18th, members of the Kresge Foundation visited St. Paul to learn more about the Rondo community and our work as both a residential and commercial land trust. Pictured to the right are representatives from Kresge, Mikeya Griffin (ED), Tameka Jones (Rondo CLT Board Member and owner of Lip Esteem), and Coco (Deputy Director). 
Rice Street Garden's Summer Celebration
On August 5th, Mikeya Griffin (ED) and Damon Mason (Senior Housing Program Manager) went to the Summer Celebration at Rice Street Gardens. It was a good opportunity to connect with the community and share more with them Rondo CLT's plans to redevelop the site in partnership with the gardens.
Save the Date!
Mark your calendars! It is Rondo CLT's 30th Anniversary and we are celebrating in style. On the evening of November 15th, we are hosting a celebration. During the cocktail party, we will toast our past, present, and future. We will honor St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter as well as both past and present board members. To make this event a success, we need your support. Click here to learn how you can help us as we celebrate 30 years of progress – and lay the groundwork for many decades more.

Rondo CLT builds community wealth and neighborhood stability through the development and stewardship of perpetually affordable homeownership opportunities, rental housing, commercial space, and other community assets.

Each new property that enters the community land trust starts a cycle of affordability for generations of low to moderate income earning families and local small business owners. Your donation makes all of this possible. Thank you.
