The generous grant is aimed at bolstering efforts to build homes for low and moderate-income families in East Central Florida.
The impact of this grant is set to be significant, as Homes Bring Hope intends to direct these funds toward the construction of additional housing for families in need. This endeavor aligns perfectly with the organization’s mission to provide affordable homes to those who require them most.
