The evening also celebrated progress on two new affordable housing projects currently in predevelopment, underscoring DeSales’ commitment to creating vibrant, affordable communities. We look forward to sharing more updates as these projects unfold and are deeply grateful to everyone who rallied with us to help preserve and enhance the existing housing within the DeSales portfolio.
We also had the privilege of honoring two retiring board members, whose dedication and years of service have been instrumental in shaping DeSales’ mission. David Rodgers, our current board President, presented heartfelt recognition to Larry McCarthy, who served an inspiring 20 years, and Mary Wilson, who contributed 15 years of impactful service. Their unwavering commitment to DeSales and the neighborhoods we serve will leave a lasting legacy.
Our thanks extend to SqWires for providing a wonderful venue, and to our dedicated staff, board members, and volunteers who worked tirelessly to make this event a memorable success. As we look toward the future, this annual gathering reminds us of the powerful impact we can make together. We’re already counting down to next year’s Night Out for Neighborhoods, where we’ll continue to celebrate and support the people and projects that make St. Louis a better place for everyone
