Overview
Mission
Improving the lives of farmworkers and low-income individuals in rural communities through affordable housing, advocacy, building financial assets and other innovative solutions.
What it reported doing in 2024
Affordable housing development services - comprehensive development services for the creation and/or rehabilitation of affordable housing serving low-income rural and/or farmworker households. Services provided in the following communities: aberdeen, brewster, chelan, ellensburg, entiat, hoquim, leavenworth, manson, mattawa, omak, oroville, othello, port townsend, roosevelt, skagit county, sunnyside, wenatchee, winthrop, and yakima totaling 1,250 units, and 256 beds in development.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 76% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of total spending goes to programs and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence.
