PLEASE MEET OUR COMMUNITY:
Facing Homelessness is building healthy community through the BLOCK Project, a community funded, community built and community supported project that places sustainable housing in backyards for those in need. It is beyond beautiful!!!
www.the-block-project.org
The reason it is beyond beautiful is because of all of you, because of people like those in The University Congregational Housing Association (UCHA)!!!
Over the years UCHA has had projects to develop affordable housing and helping others do the same. A year ago they voted to retire its nonprofit organization. It had been active for about 30 years, wowWOW!! They owned three residences and two apartment buildings providing help to those in need. After accomplishing the gifting of three of the properties and two transfers, the joyous task was to spend the remaining money in their Treasury.
The money was raised at fundraising events and through generous donations from their supporters. The Block Project was chosen to receive a check for $40,000.00 to help accelerate the process of building Block Homes!!! The UCHA is thrilled that their mission continues!
Facing Homelessness is thrilled and ever so grateful to receive this generous donation and continue the important and beautiful work of UCHA!
The gift is from John Davis, Carol Christoferson, Sue Hall, Marcia McCracken, Mary Elizabeth Maltman, Kate Nelson, Claudia Patton, Ryan Schultz, Martha Tucker and Gail Winberg!!!
A very heartfelt THANK YOU to UCHA for believing in the BLOCK Project and stepping forward with such generous support!
