Scammed out of their American Dream, these Brooklyn residents faced eviction. But hope came in the form of our NeighborWorks network member, Asian Americans for Equality (AAFE). #AAFE saved their building from foreclosure and is helping them become homeowners! 🙌 This is the power of community.

Getting ready for Pittsburgh! 🧵💛🖤 Yesterday, the moms (and other family members) of our NeighborWorks America staff came together at our D.C. headquarters for a special project. They cut and prepped fabric that will be used to make cozy fleece blankets for Light of Life Rescue Mission in Pittsburgh. The blankets will be made at our upcoming NeighborWorks Training Institute in Pittsburgh (Aug. 26-30) – and yes, the fabric features the colors of Pittsburgh's beloved sports teams! 🏈⚾️🏒🐧 Did you know NeighborWorks has roots in Pittsburgh? This year we're celebrating our 45th anniversary – and we're excited to give back to the community where it all began. Learn More here: https://hubs.li/Q02HLvYm0 #NeighborWorks

It's one of the many reasons we're excited about our partnership with American Bankers Association to grow homeownership and wealth generation, particularly in low-to-moderate income communities.
