FourCommunity

Mission

FourCommunity is founded to develop initiatives that will act as models for both
government and private developers to replicate. Our developments shall provide low-income families affordable dwelling units to live - through volunteer labor, donations of money and materials.
Houses are sold at no profit through no-interest mortgages to qualified home buyers who earn 25% to 50% of the area median income.
Three main criteria involvement for the ownership program: *need, *income eligibility and *willingness to partner.

Vision

Eliminating Housing Poverty and A Place where everybody has a home to call his OWN. We strive to both change the system that leads to poverty housing and build communities where everyone can afford to live. The sad fact is that the need for decent, affordable
housing is far greater than any single organization can meet.

Goal

We believe that every man, woman and child deserves simple, decent shelter. FourCommunity’s work is related to integrate sustainable development principals into country policies and programs and reverse the loss of environmental resources. Reduce by half the portion of people without sustainable access to safe drinking water --- which aims to achieve significant improvement in the lives of at least 100 million slum dwellers.
