CNA Meetings Postponed
To support social distancing, CNA community meetings are postponed until further notice.
​
In this time of social distancing, we can still help one another. Do you need help from a neighbor? Are you available to help others? Please fill out this form, and we'll try to connect you.
​
If possible and safe for you, please find ways to support our local businesses during this time. Check out Cambridge Local First and the Central Square Business Improvement District for more information.

We've won 2 grants
from the National Trust Preservation Funds for the architecture work at St. Augustine's: one for $2.5k and another for $15k!
Thank you!
Cambridgeport's own St. Augustine's African Orthodox Church (137 Allston St.) has been awarded a second $50k matching grant from the Cambridge Historical Commission. The money will be used toward restoration of the siding, windows, and for ADA accessibility. The roof is being redone now.
​
The CNA is fundraising to help with this historical preservation project in our neighborhood. In addition to the grant, the CHC will match all donations for up to $50k in additional funds.
