BECOME A SPONSOR of A Summer Evening with the CDP 

A Summer Evening is the Community Development Partnership’s signature annual gathering, bringing together business leaders, community partners, clients, and supporters to advance CDP’s mission. During the past 11 years, the event has raised nearly $3 million—half of that amount in just the past three years—to support CDP’s housing, small business, and community leadership work across the Lower and Outer Cape.

This year's event will be held at Truro Vineyards of Cape Cod + South Hollow Spirits on Tuesday, August 25, 2026, 6-8 p.m. In its early years, the vineyard was supported by one of CDP’s first micro-loans. Today, we gather at this iconic Cape business to celebrate what grows when community investment takes root—and what’s possible when we come together to strengthen our year-round region.
