St. Paul Church of God in Christ
Community Development Ministries, Inc

At St. Paul Community Development Ministries, we believe in the power of opportunity, faith, and hard work to transform lives. Through our Construction Training Program, we equip our students from across Chicago with the tools they need to build strong, rewarding careers in the Construction Trades.

Our Pre-Apprenticeship program provides more than just training - it offers hope, direction, and a pathway to lasting change. Participants gain hands-on skills, industry-recognized instruction, and the confidence to enter Union Apprenticeships that lead to family-sustaining wages and long-term careers. With every class, we see individuals take bold steps toward not only shaping their own futures but also uplifting their families and communities.

Your support makes this possible. Every donation, no matter how large or small, helps us continue providing essential instruction, safety certifications, and career readiness services. Contributions allow us to break down barriers that too often stand in the way of employment, especially in underserved neighborhoods.

By investing in this program, you are doing more than funding training. You are helping to create equitable opportunities for Chicago residents to access good-paying Union jobs. You are helping break cycles of poverty, restore dignity, and open doors to brighter futures. You are helping us live out our calling to serve others with compassion and purpose.

Together, we can build stronger communities - one student, one job, one family at a time. Every gift you make is a seed of faith and hope that grows into opportunity.

Join us in this mission. Your generosity helps us empower individuals, strengthen families, and honor God by building futures filled with promise.
