Round up this December to provide affordable housing for fire survivors! Habitat for Humanity is working with local community partners on the rebuilding process from the wildfires in 2020. New homes will be constructed and sold with affordable mortgages to fire victims.

The Rogue Valley affiliate of Habitat for Humanity serves Jackson County, and provides an opportunity for affordable homeownership through newly constructed homes, as well as renovations. Qualified applicants must be low income and have a substantial need for housing, as well as have a documented ability to repay a mortgage. In addition, the organization provides home repairs for low income home owners, including ramps and disability access.

Funding will be used to purchase construction material for homes to be built within the fire zone of Talent and Phoenix. All repayments from the sale of the home will be used for future projects. The first two Almeda Survivor construction projects began in Talent in 2021 and there will be a continued focus on the area for years to come.
