Answering a Need

Throughout the U.S., we are facing a severe housing shortage. Families impacted by this deficit is evident right here in our community. In Kent County over 34,600 housing units are needed, and over 14,000 in Grand Rapids. That's why our work of helping families gain stability through homeownership and preserving the affordable housing stock is so important.
