Celebrating the Volunteers Behind NDC’s Community Work

Three design volunteers pose with a poster board of their plans, holding signs that say "public space aficionado" "tree lover" and "dedicated volunteer"

Put simply, NDC wouldn’t exist without the dedication of our amazing volunteers.

In FY25, we had 78 extremely talented individuals volunteer their time and skills to support community projects across Baltimore and Prince George’s County.

Together, they volunteered a total of 1,594 hours, which equates to $175,570 in professional design services!

To all of our volunteers, thank you for being a part of our work - for investing in your neighbors and communities, and for believing in the power of design to shape places, build power, and transform systems
