A Note from the Director...
A safe, warm bed for our children. Shelter
from the summer heat and a roof over our heads to keep out the winter
rain and cold. Maybe even a little sunny spot for a garden...
These are things we all want, nevertheless, for
many hard working families in our communities, these do not come easy.
That's why I appreciate YCDC so much.
At YCDC we work to help families build their own
homes using sweat-equity
to offset costs and generate equity and wealth. We help create
strong communities and stimulate local economies.
In our work, we coordinate with a wide variety of
private and governmental agencies to find low-interest loans, grants,
and subsidies to make these high-quality homes even more affordable.
Please
call today to learn more about how you can work toward owning a new
home!
