Greater Cleveland Habitat for Humanity is building hope with its 400 Home Strategic Initiative
In August, Greater Cleveland Habitat for Humanity (GCHH) held a groundbreaking ceremony for its “400 Home Strategic Initiative” at 10707 Crestwood Ave. in the city’s Buckeye neighborhood. The goal of the initiative is to help families build wealth from home ownership, especially those who have traditionally lacked access, including people of color. On dozens of vacant lots throughout Cleveland, GCHH will soon build affordable homes for low-income residents, allowing people who might otherwise be shut out of the process to fulfill their dreams. The homes will be located in the Mount Pleasant, Buckeye-Woodhill, Collinwood, West Boulevard and Detroit-Shoreway neighborhoods.
