Disaster Relief Initiative

The CAHEC Foundation launched a new Disaster Relief Initiative designed to offer support to residents during a time of crisis. Any CAHEC-sponsored LIHTC property that experiences an unexpected disaster is eligible to apply for a grant of up to $3,000 to help provide resources to residents in need. 

We recognize our partners must react quickly after an unexpected disaster, and we hope this initiative will help fulfill our residents' basic needs as they face the aftermath of a catastrophic event. For more information on this new initiative, please visit our website.
