mission and our assets. We have created a continuing roll over plan by investing in three Calvert Social Investment Foundation notes, one in each of the last
three years, which allows the foundation to always be contributing to the support of affordable housing, micro business development and community infrastructure in the NE, SE and SW regions of the U.S. |
