100 Gives 100
Home is something we all understand: a place where we can laugh, cry, and be ourselves with the people who love us the most. Home is a stable place where we can deal with the ups and downs of daily life. You can help families of low-income have a home by becoming one of the 100 giving $100.
How 100 Gives 100 Works
100 people each giving $100 a month allows Urban Homeworks to offer all of its rental apartments available to households making as little as $10 per hour without the need of a government subsidy. Your contribution helps provide a stable housing foundation, greatly improving each family’s ability to thrive.
Our Current Waiting List
- 1-bedroom: 14 families with an average income of $1,530/month
- 2-bedroom: 21 families with an average income of $1,620/month
- 3-bedroom: 3 families with an average income of $2,250/month
What Support Means for Low-Income Families
The standard we follow recommends that tenants make three times the rental rate (or pay no more than 33% of their total income to rent). That means that the families on the waiting list need to find rent for as little as $275–$350 per month (almost impossible) for them to afford a home and still provide for their household. But Urban Homeworks has units that rent for as little as $530 for a 3-bedroom home. 100 Gives 100, combined with recent project funding, allows Urban Homeworks to meet more of the rental needs of our families with very low-income.
