The L’Enfant Trust Awarded Grant from the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities

The L’Enfant Trust (“Trust”) is pleased to announce the award of a generous grant from the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities (“CAH”) in the amount of $20,290.00. 

The grant supports the Trust’s committed rental expenses during the CAH’s Fiscal Year 2022 (October 2021 – September 2022). The generous support from CAH will help alleviate the burden of financial costs incurred during the pandemic and allow our nonprofit organization greater financial flexibility as we focus our efforts on the upcoming historic rehabilitation of 1220 Maple View Place, SE (“Big Green”) in Historic Anacostia into two family-size units of three bedrooms each that will be sold as affordable housing.

We’re grateful to CAH for their support of our work and for their unparalleled support of arts and humanities programming across the District, particularly as many nonprofit organizations continue to rebuild and recover from the COVID-19 pandemic.

CAH is an independent agency in the District of Columbia government that evaluates and initiates action on matters relating to the arts and humanities and encourages programs and the development of programs that promote progress in the arts and humanities. As the designated state arts agency for the District of Columbia, CAH is supported primarily through District government funds and in part by the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.
