BUFFALO, NY (WKBW) — There is a sense of excitement building for a local organization that helps to empower minority communities and disadvantaged individuals.
The Buffalo Urban League recently unveiled plans for a new $25 million dollar headquarters to be built along the Jefferson Avenue corridor.
Urban League officials say they've outgrown their current space at Genesee and Huron, and that a new facility would also help them consolidate and centralize their services and programs.
The next step to make this a reality will be a major fundraising campaign to help them finance the project.
The hope is to have the new headquarters open in about five years.
