Hopes Response

WE HAVE A PLAN to work with public agencies and through our partnerships to create an abundance of affordable housing options and transitional services needed to succeed. Poverty, sickness, natural disasters are some underlying causes of the housing crisis. This lack of affordable housing leads to high rents which are steadily rising. Housing appears to be less affordable for the very young and very old.

Campaign Goals
Families who pay more than 30% of their income for housing are the ones we consider cost burdened.

These circumstances make it difficult to afford necessities such as food, clothing, transportation, and medical care.

Rental rates hit an all-time high in 2018 from 2.2% for a 1 bedroom to 2.8% for 2 to 3 bedrooms.

Affordable housing could help lower costs for renters.

This year we have forecast that our Community Development effort annual expenditures at $37 million and between 1o% and 25% of the monetary goals met through donations.

Our plan is to raise $9.3 million through our Community Development Campaigns over the next 5 years. Our financial forecast plan for those years will be focused on community outreach/research, land procurement, and community development allocation.

Through donations and with the help of all our “Awesome Volunteers" and help from Community Land Trust Plans For Affordable Housing Programs and other various government and state programs that help nonprofit entities and networking with other nonprofit organizations that assist families with rent payments, income-based rentals, and families affected by disaster or hardships.

Modular building for affordable Housing: WHY MODULAR
• MODULAR HOUSING COULD BE THE KEY TO COMBATING HOMELESSNESS AS WELL
AS THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING CRISIS
• HOMES ARE BUILT IN A FACTORY WHILE SITE-WORK & FOUNDATION IS SIMULTANEOUSLY BEING COMPLETED
WHICH SAVES PROJECT TIMING BETWEEN 30-50%
• KEEPS PROJECTS ON SCHEDULE & SPEEDS UP CONSTRUCTION TIME
• NO WEATHER DELAYS
• APPRAISES THE SAME AS COUNTERPARTS, AND DOES NOT DEPRECIATE
• LOWER LABOR COST
• LOWER VOLUME OF WASTE
• NO NEED TO STORE MATERIALS
• QUALITY CONTROL DURING CONSTRUCTION PROCESS
• IMPROVED FIXED COST & PRICE PREDICTABILITY
• MODERN DESIGNS
Our overall goal is to provide more affordable housing opportunities to those who qualify to participate in our programs.
