What a year! During our 37th year of Self-Help Enterprises we
reached the remarkable milestones of 5,000 new self-help homes
completed and 5,000 homes rehabilitated. These are accomplishments
without parallel in the world of affordable housing and a direct
result of our hardworking participant families, diligent staff
and generous friends and donors.
The Washburn Housing Loan Fund has been a crucial component of
the financing strategies that have allowed us to achieve such significant
production levels. The Washburn Fund provides low-interest construction
loans to families who are willing to invest their own hard work
in building homes for themselves and their neighbors. By reducing
the financing cost, the Washburn Fund helps families who would
not otherwise be able to afford their own homes.
Your generous financial support will help thousands of Valley
families achieve the dream of homeownership for years to come.
I hope you will consider contributing to the Washburn Fund again
this year and assisting us in our mission of building homes and
community. 5,000 new homes and 5,000 rehabilitated homes are just
the beginning.
People are counting on us!
