AG Schwalb announced that the Office of the Attorney General (OAG) won a $1.255 million judgment against Kenneth Brewer, Sr., the former executive director of the nonprofit H Street Community Development Corporation (HSCDC), for violating DC law and his duty as a nonprofit officer by misusing nonprofit funds. OAG sued Brewer in 2025, alleging that for years he secretly diverted HSCDC funds to pay himself increasingly larger annual bonuses.

“Particularly at a time when District residents are facing serious financial challenges, my office will not allow nonprofit executives to exploit their positions of power to line their own pockets with charitable funds. Through this judgment, $1.255 million in misappropriated funds will go towards affordable housing and local business development as donors originally intended.” – AG Schwalb
