Shaker
Square Area Development Corporation (SHAD)
SHAD, our unfunded community development corporation with
IRS 501c3 status, was founded in 1976 as Friends of Shaker Square
(FOSS).
It is, as FOSS was, a citizen-led organization focused on improving
Shaker
Square and the adjacent neighborhoods. SHAD publishes The Connection,
the neighborhood's newspaper. Members receive
discounts at local businesses.

Burten, Bell, Carr Development
(BBC)
About ten years years ago it was decided to transfer SHAD's
funding to the Buckeye Community Development Corporation,
which became the Buckeye-Shaker Square CDC. After this CDC
closed because of financial irregularities, our
neighborhood was reassigned again in 2020.
We are now served by Burten, Bell,
Carr Development, a CDC founded in 1990 to serve Cleveland's
Central and Kinsman areas.
In April 2024 BBC opened an office on the Square's southeast
quadrant. website link
