The Cherry Hill Development Corporation (CHDC) is a community based 501 (c) 3 organization which was formed originally in 1982. The primary purpose of CHDC is the promotion of the general welfare and economic development of low income persons and groups residing in the Cherry Hill area of Baltimore City.
CHDC is dedicated to the primary promotion of the general welfare and economic development of low and moderate-income persons and groups in the Cherry Hill community of Baltimore, MD.
CHDC will lead the transformation of the Cherry Hill community into a community full with opportunities and rich with resources where families of all socio-economic backgrounds can live harmoniously.
My Name is Deborah Harris and I have been a resident of the Cherry Hill Community for 60 Years.
I raised my family in this community while living in Public Housing and later investing in homeownership under the Nehemiah Homeowners Development Project. I have also served as Chairman of The Homeowners Association for 13 years.
Soon after moving into Nehemiah Homes, I joined the Cherry Hill Development Corporation as a Board Member. In my twenty-seven years plus on the Board of Directors, I've served in various capacities; Secretary, Parliamentarian, Membership Committee Chair, Fundraising Committee, and as Vice-Chairman of the Board.
I retired from Baltimore City Government in 2018, after dedicating twenty-seven years of service to the citizens of Baltimore City.
As Chair, I have worked to improve the branding of CHDC and implemented strategies and procedures to hold the corporation accountable.
I intend to be committed to working with the community to improve low-income and affordable housing opportunities for those who desire to stay in the Cherry Hill Community, those wanting to return back and those who want the experience of Cherry Hill. I am striving to make our community bigger, better, and stronger.
