Local Spotlight: Capital Area Housing Partnership
Capital Area Housing Partnership (CAHP) was founded with the mission of helping those in the mid-Michigan area create a home, not just a house. In this local spotlight, you’ll get a closer look at what this organization is doing for our community. Let’s get started!
The Mission: Affordable Housing for All
Capital Area Housing Partnership is a multi-faceted organization dedicated to helping those in and around Lansing find affordable housing, financial security, and successful homeownership status. They connect homebuyers with home-creators—like contractors, realtors, and lenders—to turn homeowning dreams into a reality, regardless of budget or lifestyle.
The feeling of home isn’t just about the structure in which one person or family resides—it’s about the neighborhood and the community that that house is a part of. Another large focus of CAHP is creating a community in which there are strong relationships between neighbors, businesses, and organizations.
Events, Resources & Much More
A home to call your own is one of the most important and highly sought-after things a person can have in life. CAHP wants to make that dream come true for as many people as possible, which is why they offer a wide range of helpful resources including:
- Home Buyer Education: In-person workshops & online courses
- Tool Lending Library: Tools, saws, and more for your DIY projects
- HERO DIY Classes: Lessons on home maintenance & improvement
- Educational Events: Insurance sessions, furniture restoration & more
This non-profit goes above and beyond to provide the tools and resources you need to live the life you deserve. With the help of local professionals, like contractors, and lenders, you’ll be able to do what it takes to find or create your dream home.
How You Can Get Involved in the Cause
Capital Area Housing Partnership has been largely successful in their mission to provide affordable housing in the Lansing area because of the many volunteers that work with them throughout the year.
Donate some of your free time to the cause by taking advantage of one of their many volunteer opportunities like landscaping, office assistance, advertisement creation, and more. Connect with them on Facebook and Twitter to ensure you never miss a volunteer opportunity!
