Help for Housing Starts with Your Support

Your home is so much more than your address. Where you choose to live affects your commute, where you shop, and where your children go to school. Since Housing North began work in 2018, it has become a recognized voice locally, regionally, and statewide, introducing, championing, and implementing innovative housing solutions—through new legislation, a public awareness campaign, new housing conservancy tools, local staff to coordinate development, and a resource library for advocates, local governments and employers.

Housing North is a 501c3 nonprofit organization. We are formally known as the Northwest Rural Michigan Housing Partnership EIN # 83-3499967. You are welcome to send your donation to Housing North at P.O. Box 1434, Traverse City, MI 49685

Thank you to our donors and supporters!

**GIFTS TO A PROGRAM**

**Charlevoix County Primary Residence Deed Restriction Program**
The City of Charlevoix has been proactively creating more housing opportunities with a focus on year-round housing and workforce housing through a Primary Residence Deed Restriction Program.
**Housing Ready Program**
The goal of this program is to partner with local units of government and organizations to put “boots on the ground” that can help make the community what we call “housing ready.” To learn more about these programs, click here.
Click here to donate directly to this program.
**Rental Preservation Program**
In Summer of 2022, we were fortunate to receive a $100,000 challenge grant from Consumers Energy Foundation to launch a PILOT Rental Preservation Program to help secure year-round housing in our region. The Pilot program will be in Leelanau County, but will ultimately provide additional opportunities to support housing projects throughout the region. We are excited to share that we successfully raised the matching $100,000 to receive $100,000 to launch this program. Click here to learn more about this program.
If you would like to donate to either of these programs or help fund a program in your community, please contact yarrow@housingnorth.org.

"Housing is a top priority for communities throughout Northern Michigan, but the solutions to this complex issue don't come in a one-size-fits-all approach. Housing North's diligent work with cross-sector partners is driving durable change by creating new resources, leveraging existing tools, and building support for housing solutions that will enable communities to meet their diverse housing needs". ."

Sakura Takano
Chief Executive Officer of Rotary Charities of traverse city
"What we're hearing more and more of is that the lack of housing it's impacting our citizens at all income levels, and it's impacting the success of our organizations, businesses, really the community as a whole. So when the community foundation reflects on its mission and purpose, we really feel compelled to be able to help contribute to this community challenge. We also see it as a great opportunity to help our community realize its great potential".

Laura Heintzelman
Manistee County Community Foundation executive director
