As 2024 comes to an end, so does our Annual Appeal.
For more than 100 years, the BHCA has worked to enhance the quality of life for residents through community building, civic engagement, and historic preservation.
The BHCA serves as a voice of the community – working to foster constructive dialogue on key issues, interacting with elected officials, and serving as a clearinghouse for neighborhood concerns. This year, and with your support, we worked hard to address every constituent concern, especially regarding development, traffic, and cleanliness around the Hill. Simultaneously, work is ongoing to preserve the historic integrity of the district, making this special neighborhood feel even more like "home".
The Annual Appeal provides vital funding for our ongoing operations, supports our office staff and facilities, and enables our advocacy work on behalf of the community.
We appreciate your ongoing support.
