NC Association of Community Development Corporations
GroupThe Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation, North Carolina’s largest funder of liberal causes, was instrumental in developing the community development corporations infrastructure in North Carolina. The Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation, Mary Babcock Reynolds Foundation and the Ford Foundation provided seed money in the early 1960’s to create the North Carolina Fund. Then, in the 1980’s Z. Smith Reynolds and Mary Reynolds Babcock Foundations funded a capacity-building project, creating two regional support positions to help local communities establish CDCs. An eastern project component was set up at Franklinton Center at Bricks, and run in conjunction with the United Church of Christ Commissions for Racial Justice.
The NCADC was active in the Moral Monday protests in North Carolina and is also a member of Blueprint NC, the radical political group organized by Z. Smith Reynolds that is best known for the 2013 memo that directed their members to eviscerate the state’s leadership.
