In 2000, Southeast D.C. Partners purchased a three-story apartment building at 2826 Q Street with the God-given vision to provide a safe haven for children and families as well as a place of inspiration and empowerment. Affectionately known as “The Q Street Building,” the center will house programs and services that focus on childhood development and community empowerment.

We need your help. God empowered us with the faith to build it, and now we must put our faith in action! Will you support us in this endeavor by having faith to build it? Partner with us to complete The Q Street Building. For more information on how you can help, please contact Jamillia Shipman at 202-575-3337 or jshipman@southeastdcpartners.org.
