ABOUT US
One South Euclid (OSE) is a non-profit community development corporation founded in 2009. We work with residents and businesses to ensure vibrant neighborhoods and commercial districts. Our work is driven by a volunteer Board of Directors that reflects the diversity of the city and our strategic partner, the City of South Euclid. Together as one, we ensure a stronger community.
We are one. We are all One South Euclid.
Mission
To promote sustainable economic, social and cultural connections in South Euclid.
Vision
To lead and assist others towards a better future by ensuring a thriving and vibrant residential and business community for all.
Core Values
Diversity: We are committed to building an inclusive, multicultural and equitable community.
Integrity: We exercise responsible leadership with transparency, fiscal prudence and informed decision-making.
Community Engagement: We serve the common good with a commitment to listen and respond to all.
What We Do
This program returns dilapidated properties back to productive use and has become a model for housing stabilization in a first-ring suburb. We reinvest the proceeds back into our community.
We offer grants to residents and businesses to help improve residential and commercial properties and increase community engagement. Each year, grants are available for:
-
Storefront renovations in partnership with the City of South Euclid
-
Exterior home repair projects that act as a catalyst for neighborhood improvement.
-
Senior landscaping services that help our senior residents age in place
-
Mini grants that bring people together and beautify our community.
We host and promote community events to strengthen community bonds and attract new visitors by showing off what makes South Euclid a diverse and thriving community.
A strategic priority of One South Euclid is enhancing the downtown Mayfield-Green district. Legislation introduced in 2021 led to rezoning that expands and supports the growth of new and existing businesses and increases the accessibility to downtown South Euclid.
