Walnut Way Walnut Way Conservation Corp. (Walnut Way) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit neighborhood organization founded by residents in 2000.

The center is located at 2240 N 17th Street in a carefully renovated, formally infamous drug house. Understanding the importance of valuing place, residents restored this 1910 house, slated for demolition into an active Center where youth, families, elders, homeowners and renters participate in community development.

Lindsay Heights Residents came out to IWC to learn about financial literacy that will equip them with the knowledge to support themselves and their families. With this training they will receive a 750.00 stipend to help fund their savings or any endeavors they choose.

They will meet up with their financial coach twice to guide them through the necessary process of what it means to budget correctly and strategically use the money.

Educators from banks, real estate, financial coaches, and a wellness coach spoke on the importance of building credit, prioritizing needs over wants, doing their due diligence before purchasing a home, and also self-care routines that will improve the health of their lives.

This training is vital to keep our community prepared and to continue the education with the children.
