Introducing Leo Dillinger
We are thrilled to announce that after an extensive search over the summer, Germantown United CDC has found our new Executive Director. After reviewing many talented candidates, we’re excited to introduce someone who we believe will lead us into an exciting new chapter.
Meet Leo Dillinger, who officially joined us in early November. Leo comes to us with nearly a decade of experience in community development right here in northwest Philadelphia. He is currently the Director of Operations for the Manayunk Development Corporation and the Manayunk Special Services District, where he has led impactful initiatives in business support, grant writing, placemaking, and beautification.
Throughout his career, Leo has successfully managed capital improvement projects and built strong coalitions between neighborhood stakeholders, government agencies, and elected officials to advocate for community needs. A graduate of Penn State University’s College of Communications, Leo has called East Mount Airy home for the past four years.
We’re confident that Leo’s experience and passion for community work will be instrumental in guiding Germantown United CDC into the future. Please join us in welcoming Leo to our team!
