HOMEPORT COMMUNITY REPORT 2014

ON THE COVER

“Strong Communities Start with You” is a play on Homeport’s tagline (Strong Communities Start at Home). It means means everything we do to strengthen Central Ohio depends on support from people like you.

This year we put all of the 2014 donors on the cover in the shape of Homeport’s logo, because our existence and effectiveness is contingent on hundreds of individual and corporate partners, donors, foundations, and volunteers who care about the needs in our community. Your engagement makes a real difference in people’s lives.

The boy featured on the cover was photographed during a summer camp program at Homeport’s Framingham Village, a program that helps children retain knowledge and build healthy relationships in a safe environment.

Our strategies

RESIDEN T SU PPO RT

C LASS ES & COAC HING

Homeport helps low-income people build the foundation for a better life.

Providing a roof over someone’s head is only the start of building a healthy home.

Strong homes need financial stability, but not everyone has the tools to be successful.

We build homes for people like working single mothers who need a healthy environment for their kids, or seniors on a fixed income who need quality, fully accessible homes. In short, Homeport creates homes for people seeking to improve the quality of their lives. Homeport’s development is also geared towards community revitalization. We reinvest in neglected Central Ohio neighborhoods, improving living environments for hundreds of families and promoting a healthier, safer city for all.

Part of Homeport’s multi-pronged strategy for building stronger communities is to provide connections to vital resources. Every year Homeport facilitates thousands of these connections by linking residents to employment readiness services, eviction prevention resources, financial coaching, and much more.

Homeport staff and partners also bring out-ofschool programming, nutritious meals, books, and school supplies right to the doorstep of hundreds of children in our rental communities.

Homeport provides classes to the general public on how to responsibly own a home, manage personal finances, and deal with foreclosure. Through classes and one-on-one coaching, Homeport provides families from every background with invaluable, practical tools for a better life.

REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT

Homeport’s reach across Central Ohio continued to grow in 2014, bringing opportunity to lowincome families and energizing neighborhoods.

New properties were completed in Whitehall, the Hilliard area, North of Broad, and beyond, while development continued in Columbus’ urban core – creating better homes and better neighborhoods simultaneously.

UNDER CONSTR UCTI ON

Hilltop Homes | A 39 single-family homes

Eastway Court | C 32 homes for seniors

The Hilltop neighborhood on Columbus’ West Side will get a substantial boost as Homeport moves forward with Hilltop Homes II. The development, a partnership between Homeport and Homes on the Hill CDC, will convert vacant or abandoned properties into 39 new energyefficient homes. These homes offer a unique ownership opportunity through Homeport’s lease-purchase program.

As the second phase of Eastway Village, Eastway Court provides an aging-in-place model in Whitehall. Homeport worked with the City of Whitehall to build quality homes that support the City’s revitalization strategy.

Through a partnership with Jewish Family Services, Eastway residents have access to services such as meal delivery, healthcare and transportation.

Victorian Heritage | E 34 homes for seniors 25 homes for families

Barrett School | B Homeport and CASTO have partnered to transform the Barrett Middle School site, located in the Merion Village area just south of downtown Columbus. Historic Tax Credits will help preserve the vacant school building as apartments, while the surrounding site will feature historically appropriate homes. As a market-rate development, the Barrett School represents an exciting new approach to revenue generation in support of programs for lowincome people in Central Ohio.

Trabue Crossing | D 52 homes for families The Trabue Crossing community, located within walking distance of shopping, restaurants, and employment opportunities on the far west side of Columbus, is comprised of beautiful townhome apartments in the Hilliard School System. Children at Trabue Crossing benefit from content-rich summer programming provided on-site.

Trabue Crossing provides safe, energy-efficient homes for limited-income parents seeking a stable living environment for their families.

Victorian Heritage is comprised of a collection of historic apartments and townhomes scattered throughout Weinland Park and the University District.

The properties will undergo much-need renovations while preserving affordability for the existing low-income residents, a substantial portion of which are seniors. The investment will include installing an elevator in the senior building and improving energy efficiency.

NEI GH BOR H OOD R EVI TAL I ZATI ON & F OR -S AL E H OM ES Homeport built 23 forsale homes as part of its neighborhood revitalization efforts, including 15 new construction homes and eight renovations. Of these homes, 17 were concentrated in North of Broad (F).

Homeport also sold 23 homes, 20 of which were bought by firsttime home buyers.

WHEN A SENIOR COUPLE FACED A HEALTH CRISIS, THE CHALLENGES OF LIFE COMPOUNDED RAPIDLY. FINDING A HOMEPORT HOME MADE A DIFFERENCE.

FIELDSTONE COURT

W H E N M I C H A EL SUTTL E ’ S WIFE BE CAME

seriously ill, the couple moved in temporarily with his daughter and her family. It wasn’t long, said Michael, before the living situation became nearly impossible. “[My wife’s] health was deteriorating and she got to the point where she couldn’t go up and down the stairs, so we needed a place that was wheelchair accessible.” But with a limited income, finding a home that met their needs and was also affordable proved to be difficult.

“We were on Social Security and I had to quit my part-time job to take care of her, because she required 24-hour care,” Michael said. After a number of fruitless apartment searches, Michael asked a property manager about places based on income and was directed to Homeport. The couple was then connected with Homeport’s Fieldstone Court community, which Michael said he and his wife “fell in love with” as soon as they saw it.

“We really needed an affordable place that was accessible, secure and well-maintained,

and this place filled all those needs,” Michael said, speaking with Homeport staff several months after the death of his wife in early 2014. “What I most appreciated was the first week after my wife died, one of the owners was here and she talked to me and expressed her sympathy…which I really needed at the time. And they also sent a social worker to see if I had any needs, and they periodically will check to see if I need anything.”

Michael’s story demonstrates the very practical needs felt by many in Central Ohio, both for an affordable home that meets pressing physical needs, and for services and support that help in difficult times.

For Michael, finding a Homeport home made a difference, and continues to help him adjust to major changes in his life. He describes warmly the activities and relationships he has formed with other tenants since the passing of his wife. “It’s like a family here,” Michael said. “It’s a wonderful place to live.”

Celebrating 10 years of the penguin.

TRANSFORMED STREETS, A STRONGER NEIGHBORHOOD, AND A PENGUIN. For 10 years, concentrated investment in North of Broad has transformed entire streets, breathing new life into a community rich with history.

The image of a penguin was used to help brand North of Broad (or “NoBo”), and today is a part of the neighborhood’s identity and a symbol of better things to come.

2005–2014

“Homeport doesn’t just build a home and walk away. They build a community of people.

I’ve witnessed it happen, I’ve seen the transformation in neighborhoods, and it’s incredibly inspiring.”

IN 2005, HOMEPORT BEGAN A COMPREHENSIVE

effort to support revitalization of the historic King-Lincoln District (KLD) just east of downtown Columbus. Concentrated in an area within the KLD dubbed “North of Broad,” Homeport’s investment includes new and renovated single-family homes for buyers of varying income levels.

Homeport set a new neighborhood standard for energy efficiency, and built Ohio’s first affordable LEED Platinum single-family home in North of Broad. In addition to making a

substantial mark on the residential side of North of Broad, Homeport staff and volunteers invested thousands of hours in community art projects, commercial and residential paintings and plantings, a community garden, and other enhancements.

While considerable work remains to be done, quality of life for residents of the King-Lincoln District has changed substantially over the last decade – a change that would not have happened without the vision and collaborative efforts of both private and public leadership.

RESIDENT SUPPORT Homeport staff connected residents to more than 2,600 services in 2014, providing greater stability for low-income families and seniors.

Partners and volunteers help bring on-site services to life at Homeport communities. One way Homeport surrounds residents with services is by organizing onsite resource fairs with practical provisions such as fresh produce, school supplies, and connections to healthcare services.

Produce Markets

Homeport Service Coordinators made over 2,600 service connections to approximately 600 residents living in Homeport’s rental communities.

Many of these connections were related to eviction prevention.

Residents also were linked to services such as employment readiness training, health screenings, and Homeport classes and coaching.

From September to December of 2014, Homeport residents received more than $35,000 in assistance for rent, utilities, and transportation through a special emergency fund administered

by The Columbus Foundation and other community partners.

Awards were based on special need and were contingent on the recipient’s completion of Homeport finance classes and individual coaching sessions.

Volunteers from within Homeport’s communities and from our corporate partners gave their time to put on 12 Fresh and Free Produce Markets in Homeport’s communities, serving over 6,000 people.

Each of the 1,316 families who attended a produce market received fresh fruits and vegetables, dairy products, and baked goods.

the best chance of succeeding. Every year, hundreds of kids in Homeport rental communities benefit from caring staff who provide homework help, mentorship, educational activities, and a listening ear at after-school and summer camp programs.

In 2014, Homeport formed new partnerships with the Boys and Girls Clubs of Columbus and Columbus Area Integrated Health Services to strengthen our programs for children. Thanks to these partners and the generosity of Homeport supporters, children have received care and attention they desperately need; but many families in Homeport communities still lack access to these programs, and expanding out-of-school services over the coming years remains a critical objective to ensure the health of families.

812 children received over 2,000 books from Homeport’s awardwinning Bright Ideas Book Bank, which exposes kids to some of the best new children’s literature available.

Greater Columbus Community Helping Hands provided scholarships to two Homeport residents to cover collegerelated expenses.

Homeport volunteers helped prepare 1,148 children for school by providing them with backpacks filled with essentials such as paper, pencils, erasers, scissors, highlighters, pens, markers, crayons, glue, binders, and folders.

School Readiness Assessments Homeport and the United Way of Central Ohio provided schoolreadiness assessments to more than 765 preschool-aged children through the Columbus and Franklin County Kids programs.

Ohio Capital Impact Corporation, a non-profit arm of Ohio Capital Corporation for Housing, provided educational scholarships to five Homeport residents, including three tuition and/or student-related expense scholarships, and two GED scholarships.

CLASSES & COACHING Homeport helped over 200 people buy a home in 2014, and taught over 1,300 people the basics of finance, home maintenance, and credit management.

Hundreds of others facing foreclosure received one-on-one counseling, giving families across Central Ohio their best chance at keeping their homes.

Participants in Homeport’s homebuyer education class learn each step of the home buying process.

The program, supported in part by the United Way, had 36 participants in its inaugural year. Each client commits to monthly meetings to track progress on goals set during financial counseling sessions. The free follow-up

sessions are held for a minimum of one year and continue for up to two years. “We don’t want people to quit when they run into barriers. We want to work through them together,” said Netta Whitman, Homeport’s Assistant Director of Learning and Engagement. The program’s ultimate goal is to help as many residents as possible find long-term financial stability and independence.

MAURICE WAS ABOUT TO LOSE THE HOME HE’D LIVED IN FOR 20 YEARS. WITHOUT A HOMEPORT ADVISOR, IT MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED.

Kyra Crook helped Maurice work through a loan modification application and avoid foreclosure.

“I was hoping for a miracle to happen and it did.”

WHEN MAURICE H UN T ER EN T ER ED

Homeport’s office he was running out of options. Hunter’s income had taken a hit and he faced the distressing possibility of losing the home he’d lived in for nearly 20 years. He applied several times for a loan modification with his lender, but the requests were denied because he was struggling to understand the paperwork involved.

“I was in desperate need of help to figure out what was I doing wrong,” Hunter recalled. “It just wasn’t working.”

Finally Hunter showed up at Homeport’s office looking for help. Even though he didn’t have an appointment, Homeport Housing Advisor Kyra Crook met with

him and contacted his lender. She helped him fix errors in his application, which was subsequently approved for a loan modification through the FHA Home Affordable Modification Program, lowering his payments and preventing foreclosure. “Mr. Hunter acted as if he had been given a new life!” said Crook.

Today, Hunter is working two jobs and breathing easier. “It was a load off my mind,” he said. “[Facing foreclosure] is just like going down a dark alley. You don’t know the turns and twists. You just want somebody to shine a light,” Hunter said. “I did a lot of praying. I was hoping for a miracle to happen, and it did.”

We believe that stable, healthy homes are foundational to improving lives.

But many in Central Ohio still don’t have access the resources that Homeport provides, whether it’s a safe home, an after-school program, or the basic financial training that many of us take for granted. No step is too small. You can have meaningful impact by giving to Homeport, getting involved as a volunteer, or simply learning more about the needs in Central Ohio.
