Kingsland Downtown Development Authority

About Us

Welcome to the Kingsland Downtown Development Authority (KDDA), a non-profit authority dedicated to stimulating economic growth in Historic Downtown Kingsland. At KDDA, our mission is to create a vibrant community that residents can be proud of. One of the ways we achieve this is by hosting diverse events and programs throughout the year. By becoming a sponsor, you not only contribute to the success of these events but also gain visibility and goodwill among our target audience.

The Kingsland Downtown Development Authority (KDDA) district encompasses the historic business district of Kingsland and the adjoining areas that contribute to the character of downtown. The mission of the KDDA is to partner with the City of Kingsland and other public and private organizations to foster the historic preservation and economic revitalization of downtown Kingsland’s Royal District. This will be accomplished through the professional leadership of the seven-member Downtown Development Authority, the downtown program staff, and community volunteers.

We are asking for assistance in these endeavors by supporting our upcoming events and programs through our sponsorship programs.
