Woman Property Intiatives
We create new beginnings for women and children at risk of homelessness by providing permanent and affordable homes, access to support networks and ongoing advocacy.
25 new homes by 2025 goal reached!
Season’s Greetings from the team at WPI!
We are thrilled to end the calendar year by sharing that we have hit the 25 new and affordable homes by 2025 goal that we set on our 25th anniversary! Thank you to all our partners, donors, sponsors, and supporters for helping Women’s Property Initiatives reach this milestone ahead of time. These homes for women and children at risk of homelessness are now secured!!
Some of these homes have already been delivered and others are in various stages of planning and construction. What this means is that 25 vulnerable women, and in many cases their families, will have escaped housing crisis in time for the festive season next year.
But we’re not stopping! From today, we’re kickstarting a $1million fundraising campaign to enhance our impact and secure more housing over the next 6 months. If you are considering a donation this festive season, please consider helping us stretch our goal. Together, let’s make it 30!
