NEIGHBORS FIRST DEVELOPMENT

The Neighbors First Housing Team is dedicated to assisting families in overcoming housing challenges. Our ongoing efforts include expanding housing initiatives by developing a neighborhood of cottages and tiny homes. This affordable and sustainable housing option empowers working individuals and families to acquire an asset while acquiring valuable life skills.

We are working toward creating a close-knit community specifically designed for working homeless families, offering them a unique housing solution in the form of cottages and tiny homes. This innovative approach will provide affordable and sustainable housing options, allowing families to acquire an asset through a zero credit, zero interest loan. Our goal is to empower these families to not only have a place to call their own but also an opportunity to build equity. With this newfound stability, families can choose to purchase a small piece of land and relocate their cottage or sell it to another family, using the equity gained to secure a more permanent home. By fostering self-sufficiency and financial independence, we aim to break the cycle of homelessness and provide a pathway to a brighter future for these resilient families.

FIREWOOD DONATIONS: WARMTH MATTERS

Providing a family with firewood in the middle of winter when they have run out is crucial for their well-being. It ensures they can stay warm and comfortable in their home, preventing potential health risks associated with cold temperatures and creating a safe and nurturing environment for them during a challenging season.
