(Donations are eligible to be tax deductible)
In 2018, POP and Partners raised $140,000. This was more than enough to design the repair of the historic Nowland Avenue Bridge, which was completed in May 2020. Special thanks to ROW, Cummins and CICF for their generous help in getting us to this point.
In 2021, POP was awarded a $600,000 federal Community Development Block Grant fund to cover the estimated $524,000 to repair the bridge. Since that time estimates for bridge construction increased. The City of Indianapolis committed to covering any overages. An additional $146,000 had already been raised for the bridge from donors and funding campaigns.
Construction began in March 2022 and should be completed some time this Fall.
