Focused on improving the quality of life in the Harlem community, the Abyssinian Development Corporation works to increase the supply of affordable housing, strengthen social services, foster economic revitalization, and improve educational and developmental opportunities for local youth. Since its founding in 1989, the organization has leveraged more than $600 million in investments. It was one of the first community development corporations to help develop a retail supermarket - Pathmark - in a community that lacked adequate access to healthy food and has also constructed more than 1,500 rentals and more than 200 homeownership opportunities. The group has more than 140 employees.
