#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

Trainer, Facilitator and Speaker 🎤 Guiding people to Govern, Fund and Manage their organisations ⭐️ ✅ Author - 'Win the Grant' 💰 Collaborator at heart! Multi-award winning Entrepreneur 🏆 CEO: NFP Guide
Tonight is a big night for the Dubbo Community. Last year I was approached by a local businessman, Steven Wilson (pictured). Steve came to me with an idea. He wanted to do something that contributed positively, and supported vulnerable people in our community to access opportunities. He developed this concept across 110 acres of land he owns and wanted to invite the community to use the land. Fast-forward to tonight and we're holding our first public meeting to formally invite the community to share their needs and ideas. As anyone in the community development and grants space know, when there's a huge need in the community that's 'hidden' because organisations aren't able to advocate or co-ordinate themselves for advocacy they often just put up with the status quo. The flow-on effect is that they're restricting services to the community, other services go out of town, people travel out of town for recreation purposes that should be available and it reduces a communities liveability. Then we have social issues, which in part, are symptoms of this (lack of services, opportunities etc.). Our team is honoured to lead this project. It's the first community led precinct example I can find in Australia. However, if you know of other examples pls share. For those interested in coming tonight, you can find out more and register here: https://lnkd.in/g6kzadsj #communitydevelopment #precinct #not-for-profits #buildingcommunity

Following our presentation to HRM's Community Planning and Economic Development Standing Committee (CPED) on behalf of the New Roots Community Land Trust (CLT) North End African Nova Scotian (ANS) Community, myself & Houssam Elokda had the privilege of being interviewed by Vanessa Wright with Global News to discuss the origins and urgency of our work. In my interview I discussed the origins of this work and emphasized its urgency. It’s crucial to act now to prevent further displacement of our community due to gentrification causing rising rental rates and extreme land dispossession in community. It's crucial to leverage this land to begin to rebuild the ANS communities that were lost in Cogswell and surrounding areas through Urban Renewal to help resident return to their previous status of working class, business and homeowners. titles that were lost by thousands of anus individuals through this process. The Trust intends to use funds generated from this initial development for the Community Land Trust (CLT) to acquire land in the North End and surrounding areas where historic ANS communities once lived and thrived; to restore and strengthen our community to its previous status. We hope this work, when competed, can serve as a blueprint for other communities to duplicate elsewhere to begin to develop their own sense of ownership and equity. Stay tuned for more updates on our progress and how you can support this vital initiative. #CommunityDevelopment #AffordableHousing #UrbanPlanning #SocialJustice #HousingEquity #CommunityEngagement #Nonprofit #HousingCrisis #CityPlanning #SustainableDevelopment #CivicLeadership #CommunityEmpowerment #LocalGovernment #PublicPolicy #RealEstateDevelopment

Imagine a Toronto without nonprofits. A Toronto where there is no social housing, no children’s services, no employment services, no arts and cultural programming. A Toronto where there is no one to identify and respond to emerging community issues and to ensure that local voices are heard by decision-makers. This is the scenario that we are facing if we don’t act now to protect the space rights of nonprofits. Nonprofits are vital for Toronto’s communities, but they are being squeezed out of their own neighbourhoods by rising rents and lack of space. They need more support and resources from the City to secure suitable and stables space that meets their needs and the needs of the people they serve. #SpatialJusticeTO https://lnkd.in/gh3sWSja
