| It Was a Great Day to Walk for Affordable Housing! |
|
| To all who walked, donated, volunteered, and cheered us on—thank you. This year’s Walk for Affordable Housing was a beautiful reflection of the heart and strength of our community. Whether you’ve been with us since the very first walk or joined for the first time this year, your presence continues to be vital to our mission of building and preserving affordable homes for our neighbors.
It was a perfect day to gather—sunny skies, warm smiles, and the energy of a community coming together. We listened to great tunes played by J.P. Honk Band, shared delicious food generously donated by local restaurants, signed petitions to support state housing policy, enjoyed the raffle with many local prizes and spent meaningful time reconnecting and building new relationships. The walk reminded us that this work doesn’t happen in isolation—it happens when neighbors come together with purpose and heart. We’re so grateful to be in this with all of you.
Thank you to our many sponsors of the event. You can see them all listed on our website, where we will add more photos in coming weeks! |

| HCA Tenant Council — Building Community |
|
| HCA’s Tenant Council kicked off its new Coffee Hours this month, welcoming residents for casual, community-driven conversations over coffee and light refreshments. Designed as an extension of the council’s commitment to community-building and inclusion, the series creates a space for tenants to connect and share experiences with neighbors in a more casual way. The first two such coffee hours saw new connections and deepening connections between tenants living in the same building, laying the foundation for what promises to be a meaningful ongoing program.
In addition to being an important social gathering, the Coffee Hours serve as a platform for residents to voice ideas, ask questions, and learn about initiatives shaping their homes and neighborhoods. By bringing people together in an informal setting, we are strengthening relationships and build a community of open communication and shared responsibility where neighbors feel a shared identity and a part of the HCA community.
Thanks to our hosts and attendees to date! We look forward to future events! |

| 10 Sunnyside Ave – Construction May Start Next Month!
HCA is now in the process of closing on our construction financing so that we can start construction on the 10 Sunnyside Ave project – 43 Passive House certified apartments with a roof deck and community room.
We expect to close and start construction in July. Once we know the true starting date, we will schedule a groundbreaking ceremony and you are invited! In the meanwhile, you may see some work on the site in June. Our general contractor may start some abatement and demolition work on the existing building on the site before July.
As soon as the dates are more clear we will also be in touch with neighbors and abutters of the site to keep them deeply informed during the construction process. |
Stay Tuned!
HCA will soon kick off our spring/summer fundraising appeal. In coming weeks you may receive a letter and an email about that!
Please take a look at that time and donate as generously as you can. HCA is meeting a lot of local needs, needs which may expand, since the federal budgets for HUD and Medicaid are severely threatened. Your donation will help us keep up the good work and meet the needs of our neighbors. |
