Le terrain est l'une des ressources les plus importantes dont nous disposons pour accroître les possibilités d'accession à la propriété à prix abordable dans notre ville. Habitat Metro Denver est reconnaissant du soutien de plusieurs congrégations de la région métropolitaine de Denver qui se sont associées à nous pour fournir des terrains destinés à la construction de nouveaux logements abordables.
Outre les terrains, ces congrégations apportent également un soutien financier et des bénévoles au travail d'Habitat, et sont de puissants défenseurs du logement dans nos communautés.
Mountain View United Church formed a collaborative partnership with Habitat Metro Denver in 2022 and worked with the Interfaith Alliance of Colorado and the Congregation Land Campaign. Habitat worked alongside the congregation to develop a site plan that transformed an empty lot into 20 owner-occupied, affordable homes.
Augustana Lutheran Church began its partnership with Habitat Metro Denver in 2022. Thanks to the support of the Congregation Land Campaign, Augustana put out a request for proposals (RFP), inviting applications for an affordable housing developer to build homes on church-owned land. Habitat Metro Denver was selected as the developer and built 8 affordable homes on the site.
In many cases, congregations are mowing or maintaining these lots at significant cost, with limited benefit to themselves or the community. One way that congregations can use their land to support community health is by selling or leasing it to build affordable homes.
Habitat for Humanity of Metro Denver is poised to respond to these projects and help congregations turn their unused land into attainable homes for hardworking families.
Donating, selling, or leasing land to Habitat is one of the most impactful ways your congregation can support affordable housing in your community.
