The Mount Holly Community Development Foundation is seeking a full time Executive Director.

Our organization is a 501 (c)(3) charity. We began in 2003 and currently have over 100 members. Our five committees are staffed entirely by volunteers and they have accomplished major goals in our community. Our vision is to bring economic development, downtown revitalization, and improved quality of life to our city.

Projects that have been approved for 2008 include: continuing to offer façade grants for small business in our core downtown; fostering the concept of a “River District” which will reach across the river and include developments in Mecklenburg County, and encourage development based on green technology; break ground for an 11 mile greenway along the Catawba River, which has been approved by our City Council, and engage in attracting people into our downtown through the events and arts committee.

Our Foundation reaches out regionally to partner with other communities, businesses, and non-profits. We maintain an excellent relationship with our City Council and staff, so applicants should have strong communication skills and enjoy working with avariety of people.
