HOUSING AS PART OF YOUR MINISTRY The San Francisco Bay Area is in an affordable housing crisis. At present, over 171,000 Californians are experiencing homelessness, and nearly half of Bay Area renters are rent burdened, paying over 30% of their monthly income on housing costs. Episcopal Impact Fund has tailored a program specifically to assist any faith-based institution aiming to tackle the housing crisis in the Bay Area through affordable housing development on their properties. Our ecumenical program builds the capacity of faith-based organizations looking to take the first steps toward development and serve as an extension of your team throughout development – starting with pre-development, feasibility analysis, and establishing relationships with experienced nonprofit housing developers. We offer technical assistance and project management, accompanying faith-based landowners and helping them to discern and make well-informed decisions about the use of their land. https://loom.ly/3xPNW70

Only 10 more days for us to reach our goal in order to be able to remodel two homes here in #centralarkansas! This fiscal year (July 1, 2023 – June 30, 2024), Habitat for Humanity of Central Arkansas accomplished an ambitious construction goal of closing on 10 homes by June 30, meaning 10 new families are living under roofs of their very own, building strength, stability, and self-reliance. Now, with your support, we have an opportunity to soar past that goal! Because of unique situations, we own two homes that need a little love (well, one needs a LOT of love). We can remodel these homes and put deserving families in them for significantly less money and in less time than two new builds. And we believe we can do it by June 30, our fiscal year-end. Our financial need for these two projects is $100,000. The best part? We have already secured a lead gift of $40,000! That means we need to raise $60,000 in 60 days. We KNOW we can do this because of friends and supporters like you who share our commitment to “building homes, communities, and hope.” Give here to help us finish this push for $60k in 60 days! https://lnkd.in/gv-9SkN7 Remember, decent, affordable housing improves not only economic outcomes of these families, but also improves the education, health, social, and civic outcomes for them as well. Your gift is an investment in these families, our neighborhoods, and our community for generations to come. The goal is BIG, but the payoff is bigger! Thank you in advance for your consideration and support. #affordablehousing #remodel

It’s no secret that the Bay Area has affordable housing challenges. One interesting model for addressing this is a Community Land Trust (CLT). A CLT is a nonprofit organization that manages land and offers housing for the benefit of a community, enabling it to become stronger and more equitable.

Last week, PHA held a listening session with area realtors as it prepares to administer Henrico County’s $60M housing trust fund. The session focused on how to make affordable homeownership more accessible to seniors and first-time homebuyers in the current market. Previous sessions were held with nonprofit and for-profit developers earlier in June. Henrico County seeks to create 150 new affordable homes in the first year of the program, using unbudgeted revenue from data centers. The median sale price for a single-family home in Henrico is currently $385,000. This program has the potential to bring the cost of new construction homes down by roughly 20-30%. This partnership supports PHA’s 2024 policy priority of increasing local public investment in housing. PHA continues to work with local governments to alleviate barriers to affordable housing. Developers interested in applying for funding will be able to do so later this summer. Richmond Association of REALTORS® Henrico County #affordablehousing #systemschange #rva

Addressing the root causes of hunger means addressing housing. More than 50 percent of renters in Oregon do not have enough money after rent to afford food and other basic necessities. This underscores an essential fact: housing insecurity isn’t just a housing issue — it’s a key driver of hunger. Everyone deserves a safe place to call home and no one should have to choose between buying food and paying for housing. Support the Oregon IDA Initiative, which increases financial stability and builds savings for households: https://lnkd.in/g6MfKi7t Neighborhood Partnerships
