Supporting organizations, strengthening communities

We help mission-driven property developers create and preserve housing and community facilities that thrive and endure

  • Gray's Landing

    South Waterfront’s first affordable housing

    In a rising riverfront redevelopment, Gray’s Landing provides homes for low-income families and formerly homeless veterans, plus offices for REACH Community Development.
  • Rockwood

    Support for families

    The Rockwood Building combines affordable housing with essential services for low-income residents in East Multnomah County.
  • Chaucer

    Downtown housing for the elderly and disabled

    In a restored historic building, Chaucer Court provides affordable homes that are close to transit and urban amenities.

In Oregon, the housing-cost burden for extremely low-income renters is the fourth worst in the nation. Only one affordable unit is available for every five of these households.
