Lawyers Campaign for Affordable Homeownership

The Lawyers’ Campaign for Homeownership Access seeks to mobilize dedicated Maryland attorneys and law firms in advancing affordable homeownership opportunities for first-time and first-generation homebuyers. The campaign will benefit Habitat for Humanity of the Chesapeake.

No one should face the impossible choices of paying rent, or putting food on the table. Risking foreclosure or paying for their child’s prescription meds. Affordable homeownership is life-changing for families, bringing safety, stability and opportunity to build wealth across generations. As families’ lives are transformed, so is the community. Here is the power of your support - Meet Whitney.

Whitney is a single mother of three daughters who now owns her very own home thanks to the gifts of organizations like yours. "With me having student loans, I didn't think that I would be able to own a home. The program is great for people like myself who are in unique situations,” said Whitney. “I am a single parent of three who went back to school to further my education. A high student loan can oftentimes be a barrier when you want to move forward with the next phase of your life. Habitat for Humanity gives you hope and opportunity.”

As a member of The Lawyers' Campaign for Homeownership Access, you can help Habitat for Humanity of the Chesapeake raise the bar for affordable homeownership and provide homeownership opportunities for individuals and families like Whitney's, bringing the dream of owning a home to reality.
