The purpose of the Cleveland Corporate Challenge is to create a healthy and recreational event that builds company pride, morale and camaraderie among employees and companies. Each company entering the Corporate Cup Division will be able to pick the charity of their choice to compete for. The top 3 places in each division will have a donation made in their name to the charity they choose. EDEN is proud to participate this year and we look forward to many years to come!

EDEN is proud to announce that more than flowers will bloom in the Spring of 2010.  It will also welcome construction on our latest Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) Project. Presently known as Emerald Alliance V, we anticipate the building to be complete and ready for tenants in June of 2011.

This building will be 70 efficiency units of housing in the Midtown District of Cleveland, right on Euclid Avenue. As with our other PSH projects, these units will be for persons who are homeless and have disabling conditions.

The local architectural firm of Herman Gibans Fodor has designed the building and Marous Brothers Construction has been selected as the General Contractor is. EDEN is again partnering with Cleveland Housing Network to develop this project through financing from State of Ohio Low-Income Tax Credits, the Ohio Housing Finance Agency, the City of Cleveland, and Cuyahoga County Department of Development, among others. Currently, the Development Team (EDEN, CHN, HGF, and Marous) are finalizing the design, with a goal of submitting to the City of Cleveland for a building permit very soon.

Once opened, EDEN will provide Property Management Services and Mental Health Services, Inc. will be the lead Social Services provider to the building.

Please visit our website over the next few months, where you can watch the building go up and read about the construction process.

Over the last six months, a very concerned team of individuals from EDEN, Mental Health Services, the Office of Homeless Services, the City of Cleveland and Cuyahoga County, have been planning a strategy for the renovation of the two buildings collectively known as the Community Women’s Shelter.

EDEN is pleased to announce that this strategy is becoming a reality, and a plan for this renovation will be revealed soon.

Fogle Stenzel Architects has presented a design that will connect the two buildings together while maintaining their historic significance, make the space more handicapped accessible, upgrade aging building systems, and provide administrative space to accommodate a new central intake for homeless women, with offices and private interview rooms that will assist in the rapid re-housing of individuals so as to prevent long term shelter stays. 

We will continue to report any new developments on this site and provide photographs of construction when it occurs.
