Thank You to our Housing Champions!
We need the financial support of our local business community in order to produce more units of affordable housing for essential workers. Most housing developments that we undertake cost us $150,000 to $300,000 before we can get a shovel in the ground.
If your local business would like to be a Housing Champion, email LRCD Executive Director, Carmen Lorentz at clorentz@lrcommunitydevelopers.org.
We are incredibly grateful for these businesses that support our mission!

“We hear all the time from our business customers that they can’t find enough workers. We experience the same issue here at the bank. Affordable housing is critical to solving this problem. Supporting LRCD is one concrete way we can promote development of more housing for our local workforce.”

Melcher & Prescott Insurance
"Affordable housing is clearly a challenge here in the Lakes Region. I believe affordable housing is important for producing economic growth along with creating vibrant and inclusive neighborhoods. When families can't meet their basic housing needs, businesses will struggle to attract and retain employees and our local communities will become less diverse."
- Bill Bald, President of Melcher & Prescott Insurance
