2020-21 Annual Report
Community Action Duluth has a mission to empower and engage our community to eliminate poverty. Below you will find stories, data, and financials describing how we worked toward this mission in the 2021 fiscal year (10/01/20-09/30/21). We couldn't have done this work without the participants, volunteers, and donors who make it possible!
Community Construction experienced both ups and downs while learning what it takes to be successful in completing rehabs and supporting our crew members. With a year under our belts now, we are looking forward to taking this program to new heights and continuing our work to better our community.
Eight individuals completed the Computer Skills Course in 2021. Twila said, "I loved the class because we never get too old to learn. I really wanted to know the ins and outs of all the buttons on the computer. Pretty soon I'll start my own business and I need to know about computers. It's never too late to learn the technology."
The Mobile Market began in early 2021 to address food insecurity and food deserts in Duluth. It is a mobile grocery store that travels to low-income low access neighborhoods with fresh produce and staple foods at a low cost. Here is a look back at our plans for starting the market.
