Mission

Incorporated in 1989, Vancouver's Downtown Association (VDA) is a designated Washington Main Street Program that engages in revitalization efforts to keep downtown vibrant. Our initiatives aim to create an appealing employment center, boost foot traffic to small business, and enhance the quality of life for residents.

  • The Vancouver Downtown Association (VDA) continues to build on past accomplishments, advancing meaningful progress across three core program areas. The expanded Clean & Safe Program has strengthened downtown's overall appearance and sense of security through consistent on-the-ground support and enhanced maintenance efforts. The VDA also deepened its business retention and support initiatives by providing direct grants, technical assistance, and other targeted resources that have helped local businesses remain resilient and thrive. Additionally, the organization advanced several transformative placemaking projects-including the Main Street Promise infrastructure project-which are revitalizing the downtown streetscape, improving walkability, and fostering a more vibrant and welcoming community core.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
