NHS Chicago 51st Anniversary Gala Donation Page

Since 1975, NHS has recognized the impact of race, income and social status on a person’s housing security. We know homeownership has a foundational role to play in community development and closing the racial wealth gap. Our teams work to stabilize and revitalize low and moderate-income communities throughout the greater Chicagoland area and suburbs. We facilitate such revitalization by helping middle-class and working-class families purchase and maintain their own homes. NHS works to correct the inequities and end the exploitative practices that create housing insecurity. Well-maintained, owner-occupied homes have a range of economic, social, and psychological benefits for their residents and are critical components of stable and economically healthy neighborhoods.
