We couldn’t be happier for Homeownership Program participant Wanda on her new home!

“It makes me very proud of myself. I now have stability and a lot of faith in moving forward,” Wanda said. “… It doesn't matter how old, young, if you owe collections, have a low credit score — do it. It's doable as long as you want it. It could take a year to a few years, and in the end it's worth all the time and effort you put into it! There are no words I can say that honestly tells how great of a feeling it is.”
