Background:
In 2020, at the height of the coronavirus worldwide pandemic, Sterling Bay hosted a holiday turkey giveaway, distributing more than 250 turkeys to Englewood families for the Thanksgiving holiday. In 2021, the company sponsored its 2 nd Annual “Wellness on Wentworth” holiday healthcare event in Englewood, offering residents and its surrounding communities an opportunity to access free walk-up healthcare services and a variety of giveaways to help families in need, serving more than 200 residents. And this year, in its 3rd annual Holiday Bazaar giveaway event, Sterling Bay plans to distribute 400.
A world-class real estate developer, Sterling Bay has deep involvement in helping under resourced communities. This summer Sterling Bay partnered with Mettle Sports to activate Fleet Fields, a publicly available street soccer pitch at Lincoln Yards that is open for free community play.
