Did you know?

A Los Angeles study found that the average public cost for a person experiencing chronic homelessness was $2,897 per month, compared to $605 per month for a similar person living in supportive housing.

That's nearly 5 times higher when someone remains homeless.

Why?

Because when people are forced to live without stable housing, they often rely on costly emergency services, including ambulance rides, emergency room visits, hospital stays, crisis interventions, and law enforcement responses.

Permanent, supportive housing changes that.

When people have a safe place to live and a community that supports them, they are better able to manage their health, access resources, build relationships, and focus on long-term stability instead of daily survival.

At Eden Village, we believe homelessness is not just a housing issue, it's a community issue.

The solution isn't simply providing a roof overhead. It's creating a place where people are known, valued, and connected.

Investing in people doesn't just change lives, it strengthens communities.

Like a lot of our Springfield neighbors, last week’s hail storm hit Eden Village 2 hard! Several of our residents had their car windows shattered, and for many, the cost of insurance deductibles just isn’t something they can easily absorb. On top of that, our community center, one of the most im...

Happy Birthday to Dr. David Brown! 🎉

Today we celebrate one of the visionary founders of Eden Village whose compassion, leadership, and unwavering belief in the dignity of every person helped turn a dream into a movement.

His legacy can be seen not only in the homes that have been built, but in the hope, belonging, and relationships that continue to flourish every day.

75% of donors don't know about the Universal Charitable Deduction (UCD).

- $1,000 deduction for single filers
- $2,000 deduction for joint filers

This is an above-the-line deduction available to standard deduction filers and allows donors who don't itemize to now receive tax benefits for charitable giving. The UCD effectively reverses much of the negative impact from the TCJA for donors who don't itemize. It restores a tax incentive for the 67% of donors who take the standard deduction.

Thank you, Springfield Daily Citizen & Brian Fogle!
