Such a privilege to attend Lawndale Christian Health Center 40th anniversary gala last night! Carmen Jaeger and I had a great time. Carmen led Christopher Dons and the LCHC team through their New Markets closing earlier this year. It was also really exciting to see the Crow Island Community Capital name on the materials as a sponsor for the first time alongside my old law firm Applegate & Thorne-Thomsen, P.C. which represented LCHC in the transaction

We had a fantastic time at the National Association of State and Local Equity Funds (NASLEF) 2024 Conference in Charlottesville, celebrating NASLEF's three decades of impactful housing solutions and community development. As a proud sponsor, we were thrilled to connect with industry leaders and peers, and our own Glenn Graff shared his expertise on a panel discussing the future of state and energy credits and how they can be combined with LIHTC equity in multifamily properties. Looking forward to continuing these important conversations and fostering thriving communities!
