The three projects | one community capital campaign targets a broad range of human needs and brings solutions under one umbrella.

20 nonprofit partners are coming together to help low-income families and youth address emergency needs, achieve stability and find their unique voice.

$5 million private fundraising goal leverages more than $22 million in additional funding.

"These projects are designed for now and for the future. Affordable rents, no mortgages, environmentally sensitive design and construction, and low operating costs - all will enable residents and partner organizations to maximize scarce resources. This campaign leverages public housing funds and private philanthropy into a practical, workable, long-term operating plan."
- Martha Kongsgaard, Capital Campaign Co-chair
