CHFA’s David W. Herlinger Golf Tournament raised $105,000 for Montbello Organizing Committee (MOC) on Tuesday, August 12th. Based in Denver’s Montbello neighborhood, MOC is a community organization dedicated to energizing and supporting Montbello stakeholders and resident leaders in their efforts to proactively and responsibly tackle the critical issues impacting their quality of life. MOC identifies and addresses many challenges the community faces, including lack of affordable housing. Since 2013, MOC has worked with residents to organize their voices and activate their intentions through community engagement activities.

“We are extremely grateful for this support from CHFA and appreciate the involvement of all who participated in the tournament,” said Donna Garnett, Chief Executive Officer of MOC. “The Montbello neighborhood is a strong and vibrant community with many challenges. CHFA has been a champion for our work for many years, supporting our affordable housing and economic development endeavors, and now providing much-needed support in a time when our organization is navigating financial uncertainty and the elevated needs of our neighbors in so many areas. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.”

CHFA’s annual golf tournament raises proceeds to benefit a local nonprofit whose work coincides with CHFA’s mission of affordable housing and community development. More information about Montbello Organizing Committee is available at montbelloorganizing.org.
