2019 Recap
Home Buyer Program
In 2019, we partnered with three Sheboygan County families to help them achieve simple, decent and affordable housing through our Home Buyer Program. In additional to these three families who closed on their homes, we have actively been working with two others to prepare them for purchasing a home in 2020. A snapshot of each family we worked with in 2019 is included below.

Home Repair and Rock the Block Programs
In 2019, we worked with the Smith Family through our county-wide Home Repair Program to provide financing and contracting for a new roof, painting and other repair work on her home. This project was not able to be finished in 2019 so we will continue it as soon as weather allows in 2020. Through our Rock the Block Program, we completed 14 projects in a targeted neighborhood on Sheboygan's north side. We worked with nine homeowners in this neighborhood to provide affordable repairs on their homes. We completed five additional community projects in the neighborhoods - one for RCS Empowers, a local non-profit, and four neighborhood clean-up projects in alleyways and streets. A video recap of our 2019 Rock the Block event is included below.
