Governance
This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

- $49,169 spent. In a joint project with the Kennebunkport Heritage Housing Trust, the Kennebunkport Heritage Housing Trust 2 acquired a donation of land from the town of Kennebunkport, Maine. The organizations have started the process to build 6 affordable housing units on this approximately 5-acre parcel and plan to finish the process in 2025. The expenses incurred in 2024 were for a settlement fee and legal fees to ensure clear title to the property, municipal planning board fees, preliminary site engineering, and a construction loan origination fee.
- Expanded the geographical scope of the organization's purpose to include two neighboring towns in order to increase the opportunity for acquiring land and to build affordable housing for a larger population.
