Flatbush
Development Corporation’s
(FDC) mission is to enhance the quality of life for all segments
of the Flatbush community. FDC identifies
and responds to neighborhood needs and concerns, proactively
creating programs and campaigns that work towards a healthy,
safe and vibrant community. Our economic development, housing,
youth, and immigration programs serve the exceptionally diverse
needs of our constituents.
FDC’s dedicated and professional
staff are led by a Board of Directors comprised of community
residents, merchants, and business leaders who are dedicated
to enhancing the quality of life for all members of the Flatbush
Community.
Complementing these
programs are efforts to promote the Flatbush community and
a commitment to its future. FDC’s Signature
events are the Victorian Flatbush House and Garden Tour, the
Flatbush Frolic Street Fair, the Four-Mile Race, the Anti- Graffiti
Task Force and Neighborhood Clean-Up, and an Annual Awards dinner
honoring community volunteers and leaders.
Through a combination of public and private funds, community support and volunteer efforts, FDC continues to maintain the vitality, diversity and quality of life that only an urban community can offer. But there is still much to be done. Affordable housing needs to be preserved and built, commercial revitalization must continue, and quality-of-life issues must be addressed to maintain a vibrant neighborhood. |
