We’re very pleased to announce that Texas Community Builders, a subsidiary of BCL of Texas (a CDFI), has agreed to be our fiscal agent in an application for an $80,000 Impact Austin grant this year! We couldn’t be more thrilled! An experienced, well-established, and successful group, their support will significantly help us with the track record we lack in applying for funding.
Please watch for another announcement from us soon about a small but very important grant award we anticipate receiving this spring related to our activities of last year!
Carol will again this year participate as a member of the Affordable Housing Committee of the Texas CDFI (Community Development Finance Institution) Coalition.
Carol will also be attending an Age-Friendly Austin Housing Work Group meeting later this month.
As you can see, we’re looking forward to a very active year ahead as we officially begin implementing Phase 1 of our development project!
Thank Yous
Many thanks to Robin Lafleur of HomeBase for her time and advice on best next steps and for steering us to BCL of Texas and Raquel Sanchez. And many thanks to Raquel for offering their support as we initiate our marketing study and other predevelopment activities this year.
