At St. Joseph Housing Initiative, every vacant house we renovate becomes a lasting foundation for a family’s future, and a positive investment in our city neighborhoods.
Since we started 9 years ago, we have renovated and sold 17 houses to first-time homeowners of low and moderate income. We have 6 more projects in the pipeline and more in our sights!
Your gift supports transformative home renovations, from new roofs to plumbing to fresh finishes- making it possible for first-time homebuyers of low to moderate income to build wealth and invest in their futures through homeownership. Through your partnership, SJHI can continue tackling vacant and distressed properties, and transforming them from neighborhood liabilities into community assets.
What does a transformative home renovation look like?
At SJHI, it means more than a coat of paint. Each home we renovate is thoughtfully transformed from top to bottom, including:
Structural stabilization
Every donation helps cover the real, significant costs behind these renovations and brings a family one step closer to a place they can proudly call home.
As a faith-based organization, our mission is to create vibrant communities through affordable quality housing where low and moderate income families can thrive, prosper and build wealth.
