Endowment

Our endowment fund was opened in July 2007. The purpose of our fund is to support the mission of the Agency in providing safe, decent, affordable, energy efficient housing to low income people of Houghton, Keweenaw, and Baraga Counties.

Our endowment is managed by the Keweenaw Community Foundation (KCF), and all donations to our endowment qualify for the Michigan Community Foundation Tax Credit valued at fifty percent of your donation. For example, a $100 donation will cost less than $50 with this special state income tax credit and federal credits.
