How about this for good news? LISC, and our affiliate Broadstreet Impact Services , have been awarded $65M in NMTC! This brings our NMTC investment in low-income communities—for everything from health clinics to job creation—to nearly $1.3B over the past two decades. ow.ly/ttmN50Ts1Kl

As devastating fires rage across Southern Cali, we're working to monitor the situation and stay in touch with our colleagues on the ground. The incredible LISC Los Angeles team, headed by ED Nicole Williams, is currently safe (some of them have evacuated, others have lost power). [1/3]
