NCF named semi-finalist in $20M national grant competition

NCF was recently named a semi-finalist in the national 2023 Housing Affordability Breakthrough Challenge. Led by Enterprise Community Partners and the Wells Fargo Foundation, this $20 million grant competition seeks to “identify and propel implementation-ready innovations that transform current practices and reimagine access to affordable homes.” Organizations competing in this challenge are eligible to receive individual grants of $1 million, $2 million, and $3 million to “scale ideas that lay the groundwork for system-wide change.”

Out of 430 applicants, NCF was named one of 42 semi-finalists who are invited to move on to the second phase of the competition. NCF was selected for its proposal in the “construction” category of the challenge.
