Yesterday, I had the opportunity to join Jennifer Parks on a Habitat for Humanity Chicago (HFHC) neighborhood tour. We explored two neighborhoods, Greater Grand Crossing and West Pullman, that have been significantly impacted by HFHC's initiatives. Serving on the Habitat for Humanity Chicago Board has given me a deeper perspective as it pertains to the impact that the organization has on a quarterly and yearly basis, yet, nothing compares to seeing the tangible outcomes of HFHC’s efforts and discussing its forward-looking vision. This experience left me invigorated and excited about the boundless potential of HFHC. For my contacts in the Chicago area who haven’t yet gotten involved with HFHC, I highly recommend that you consider doing so. HFHC’s strategic neighborhood approach includes four primary components: strengthening the neighborhood housing market, connecting the community, elevating neighborhood appeal, and enhancing the physical environment. These efforts are bolstered by ambitious five-year goals, which include increasing the number of houses built or rehabilitated by fourfold, reaching a total of 100 houses. Additionally, they aim to triple the number of participants in affordable homeownership programs, and double the number of volunteers, aiming for a total of 25,000 over five years. These ambitious initiatives are just the tip of the iceberg, and your involvement could make a significant difference! If you are interested in getting further plugged in, please reach out so I can connect you with the incredible team! If you are already motivated to make an impact, you can follow the following links to start you journey with HFHC: Volunteer: https://lnkd.in/gzA_g_27 Donate: https://lnkd.in/gyJNSmWH Learn more about HFHC: https://lnkd.in/gnsBc9ZF #HFHC #habitatforhumanity #habitat #impact #volunteer

🏡 Why the Cost of Home Matters In the US, families are facing a tough reality: paying an excessive amount for a home. At Habitat, we believe that spending more than 30% of income on housing shouldn't be the norm. Yet, in 2021, nearly 1 in 6 households paid over half their income on housing. From cities to suburbs, to rural areas, the dream of a stable home is too often out of reach. This is simply unacceptable. We're not just building houses; we're advocating for change. Habitat affiliates are tirelessly working to reform discriminatory land and zoning policies. Our goal? To create affordable homes and equitable opportunities everywhere. Discover how Habitat champions housing advocacy every day. 🌍✊ Watch our video and join us in driving equity in housing.

There is a growing conversation about the role Community Land Trusts can play in municipal housing planning. Strong collaborations between local nonprofit CLT organizations and city, county, and state organizations supporting housing options for Washington communities are essential. This blog post explains why.

Did you know? 30% of Virginians started volunteering because it was an important part of their spirituality or house of worship.

Today, the Executive Club team dedicated their time to the Ace of Clubs homeless shelter, embodying the spirit of community and compassion. It's moments like these that remind us of the collective power we hold. Each helping hand, each shared meal, and every moment spent listening to those with lived experiences of homelessness, brings us closer to understanding and action. We believe that if more individuals and organisations took a moment to step into the world of volunteering, the impact on homelessness could be profound. It's not just about one day or one act of service; it's about fostering a continuous commitment to support the most vulnerable in our society. Our aim at the Executive Club goes beyond business success; it's about building a legacy of giving back, creating ripples of change that extend far beyond our immediate circle. Let's use our networks not just for growth, but for goodwill. We're proud of the work done today and inspired to keep this momentum going. Together, we can be the keystones of change in our community. #ExecutiveClubCares #CommunityService #SocialImpact #Volunteering #HomelessnessAwareness #GiveBack

#HousingOpportunityFund Rally Recap: Last Week, BiSHoP rallied with SF Community Organizers in support of subsidies that address the hardships of extremely low-income (ELI) seniors, working families, and disabled individuals. The fund would provide rental subsidies to bridge the gap between very low-income and ELI rent levels. For less than 1% of San Francisco's budget, this subsidy would make 700+ units affordable to ELI households by 2026, and 2,800+ households by 2031. Thank you to our fellow city organizers who joined us in this rally, including Senior and Disability Action, Self-Help for the Elderly, Chinatown Community Development Center, Young Community Developers, and Mission Economic Development Agency. Join us in supporting this crucial initiative to ensure inclusive and equitable housing opportunities for all San Franciscans, regardless of income level. Stay tuned for updates on the measure's introduction and upcoming hearings. #HousingForAll #AffordableHousingForAll #EquityInHousing #SanFrancisco #SFNonProfit #BayAreaHousing #HumanRights #AffordableHousingMonth

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. Read more about CLTs and see some examples in the East Bay at the link below! #redoakrealty #realestate #eastbay #eastbayrealestate #GoodMove #realtortips #affordablehousing #communitylandtrust #blogpost #bayareahousing

As one of the five nonprofits in OJCF’s Impact Together program, HomeShare Oregon advocates for collective shifts and innovative approaches to address the pressing challenge of affordable housing. Recognizing a need for innovative ideas, HomeShare Oregon believes that a collaborative effort is essential to pave the way for effective solutions. Most participants in HomeShare Oregon face the obstacle of limited affordable housing options, hindering their journey towards stability. However, HomeShare Oregon provides housing arrangements at an average cost ranging from $600 - $850 a month. This provides homeseekers with the essential stability necessary to enhance their lives. Explore the meaningful work of HomeShare Oregon and the other participating nonprofits in Impact Together by visiting ojcf.org/impact/. #ojcf #oregonjewishcommunityfoundation #ojcfimpacttogether #impacttogether #homeshare #homesharing #homeshareoregon #peopleoforegon #portlandor #portlandoregon #portlandoregonlife #pdxoregon #pdxor #pdx101 #rosecity #oregon #exploreoregon #homelesspeople #homelessawareness #homelesssupport #homelessresources #homelessnothopeless
