Who We Are
About Us
We are a 501c3 charitable organization founded in 2021 that partners with residents, owners, and developers to help solve the crisis of affordable housing availability and homelessness.
The Crisis In Affordable Housing
The need for Affordable Housing is critical, and the situation is getting worse.
The U.S. has a shortage of 7.3 million rental homes that are affordable to renters with extremely low incomes. Only 33 exist for every 100 extremely low-income renter households.
