The Watauga Community Housing Trust teamed up with the Junaluska Heritage Association to raise funds for our first home purchase this summer!
Help us create and conserve affordable homes as a permanent resource for Watauga by donating to the First Home Fund today!
Watauga Community Housing Trust works to preserve and develop permanently affordable housing.
What makes this model effective?
“Community land trusts (CLTs) are nonprofit organizations governed by a board of CLT residents, community residents and public representatives that provide lasting community assets and shared equity homeownership opportunities for families and communities. CLTs develop rural and urban agriculture projects, commercial spaces to serve local communities, affordable rental and cooperative housing projects, and conserve land or urban green spaces. However, the heart of their work is the creation of homes that remain permanently affordable, providing successful homeownership opportunities for generations of lower income families. There are over 225 community land trusts in the United States.”
