We at Canfield Consortium are deeply proud of the progress we have achieved over the past ten years, building upon the legacy established by our parents. It has been profoundly fulfilling to witness the transformation of the neighborhood landscape and the continued growth of our community.

Over the years, we have cultivated a strong and meaningful relationship with Bernard and Lorine Parker, who have been steadfast supporters of our work. As phenomenal leaders of Barack Obama Leadership Academy, they have made the school a true cornerstone of East Canfield Village. Through their dedication, intention, and passion, they have sustained and enriched the Academy, ensuring that it continues to instill African principles, pride, leadership, and academic excellence in its students.

Bernard and Lorine have worked tirelessly to provide students with the very best the school has to offer. Their encouragement, resources, meeting spaces, and genuine partnership have strengthened our community development efforts in countless ways. We are honored to collaborate with them in advancing the vision and growth of East Canfield Village.
