The Texas State Affordable Housing Corporation (TSAHC) has informed State Representative James White that nonprofits providing critical home repairs and other housing assistance to low-income Texas families affected by Hurricane Harvey now have a second chance to apply for grants to accelerate their work. This opportunity, made possible by generous donations from the Center for Disaster Philanthropy and The Meadows Foundation, comes just days after the awarding of 14 initial grants totaling $500,000 for recovery projects
“I am extremely thankful to the Meadows Foundation and the Center for Disaster Philanthropy for their contribution in helping more nonprofits provide assistance to those heavily impacted by
Hurricane Harvey,” said Rep. White. “On behalf of my constituents in House District 19, I thank the TSAHC for working to extend the life of the HEART (Housing and Economic Assistance to Rebuild Texas) Program and its continued funding.”
