VHFA elves delivered seventy-five pairs of mittens to the King Street Center and bags of items on a local low-income family's holiday wish list to the Lund Family Center this afternoon.
Between July 2010 and June 2011, VH FA issued more than $3 billion in bonds to finance housing for low and moderate-income Vermont home buyers and renters, overhauled its Housing Data website, and increased the financing it provided for multifamily projects.
Read more about this and other VHFA’s milestones in our just released 2011 Annual Report, available now online.
During our recent sale of single family bonds, Vermonters’ own investment decisions helped ensured the success of the deal and the continuation of low interest rate VHFA-financing to qualified home buyers. These AAA-rated, tax exempt bonds, which also benefited from favorable interest rates in late November, totaled $12 million.
On January 4, 2012, the state's homeless shelters and service providers will commemorate the thousands of Vermonters who received housing and/or services this past year. A memorial vigil will be held at noon on the State House steps in Montpelier.
This event is sponsored by Vemont Coalition to End Homelessness. For more information, contact Linda Ryan at [email protected] or 802.373.6505
