Coraopolis Community Development Corporation

The Coraopolis Community Development Corporation's mission is to work toward the equitable growth and revitalization of Coraopolis by providing residents with tools to lead to self-sufficiency, continuing to grow the town's business district, and improving the overall quality of life in our community.

Since 2006, Coraopolis Community Development Corporation (CCDC) has been leading the revitalization of Coraopolis by honoring its past, meeting the needs of the present, and pointing to a bright future.

Today, we are proud to be stewards of the town's historic train station, champions for local businesses and public spaces through economic development and beautification efforts. At the heart of our work is meeting essential needs, like food. Our pantry serves over 225 households each month, and our Weekend Snack Pack Program ensures that 165 children have meals when school is out. We grow fresh produce in our community garden and create spaces that make a lasting difference.

Together, we can keep Coraopolis fed, connected, and thriving.

Testimonials

Returning to in-person food pantry service in 2024 allowed us to reconnect more deeply with our community. Face to face interaction gave us a clearer understanding of the needs and challenges our neighbors face, and how we can better respond.

Families have shared how the pantry has become a vital support system, and volunteers have expressed how meaningful it is to serve their community directly again.

This shift has helped us build trust, adapt our services, and ensure every visit offers not just food, but connection and care.
