Work with Housing Nonprofit




Why work with HNP

We are a pioneering organization committed to improving access to home ownership by bringing together alternative sources of funding for the people.

We have done vigorous research to create a comprehensive database of funding sources which we collectively refer to as “Housing Grants”. Our research on grants was built from the ground up using authoritative sources including government housing agencies, other nonprofits, and expert peer reviewed research.

In addition to a comprehensive database of existing housing grants, we spearhead innovative new programs that help cities meet their urban planning needs while providing incentives for homeowners.

You can join our mission to build stronger, more resilient communities through the power of homeownership.

Three ways to work with us

  1. Work with us to create a new Housing Grant that will uplift one special community. To work with us on new projects, please contact our Executive Director at janco@housingnonprofit.com.
  2. If you’re short on time but still want to support Housing Nonprofit, your donation can go far to  bolster our existing grant programs. Donors can choose if their contribution will go towards housing grants or research to create additional sources of funding to help homeowners.
  3. Or, make a contribution to our efforts by scheduling time to talk with our donations coordinator at info@housingnonprofit.com Company partnerships. Join a network of companies who share our enthusiasm for accessible housing. You will be in good company with our current sponsors featured below.
