Impact evidence

Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.

Programs described in its return (3)
  1. $3.9 million spent. Through our Homeownership Program, we provide opportunities for low-income households to become first-time homebuyers. All of our homes are built to Energy Star standards to maximize homeowners' savings, while reducing our ecological impact. Homeowners purchase their home with an affordable mortgage, and invest "sweat equity" building their home. We also provide Almost Home, our free home-readiness program that brings resources together to help low-income households find pathways through financial barriers that are keeping them from safe, secure and stable housing.
  2. $3.5 million spent. We operate 3 ReStores in the County, which are thrift stores selling new and gently used household goods, appliances and furniture. The proceeds from the stores support our affordable homeownership mission. In the last fiscal year, ReStore also diverted almost 5.1 million pounds of waste from landfills.
  3. $545,526 spent. Our Home Repair Program partners with low-income homeowners to make critical repairs or modifications that preserve the home, make it safe and adapt it to be accessible for everyone living in the home. An accessible home supports its residents, caregivers, and guests to fully and safely use the features of the home to do activities of daily living, work, and engage in social and individual pursuits that bring meaning to life.
