1810 Volney Road was donated to YNDC in late 2019. The historic home at 1810 Volney was built by Emery McKelvey in 1927 and was later used for decades as a Carmelite monastery and worship center led by Father Richard Madden, an organizer and spiritual leader who fought to keep the monastery open for the people of Youngstown during a time of great social and economic hardship following the collapse of the local steel industry.
On Tuesday, April 28, the United Way of Youngstown and the Mahoning Valley COVID-19 Response Fund awarded a $20,000 grant to YNDC’s Mortgage Assistance Program.
