Choptank Habitat for Humanity received $1.37 million to support the development of their 16 affordable homeownership units in Cambridge and Easton, Maryland. The creation of these new homes will likely improve surrounding property values and spur additional investment in blighted properties by landlords and homeowners alike.
In honor of Veterans Day this year, we are highlighting Perry Point Veterans Village, an extraordinary supportive housing community for homeless vets created by HELP USA in tandem with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, NEF and many other dedicated partners. The development was 10 years in the making and involved a veritable high-wire act of aligning bureaucracies and funding sources and overcoming political opposition. The result is worth the struggle: 75 safe, affordable homes for veterans who'd been surviving on the streets and now have a bona fide new lease on life.
