Keeping Hope Alive in 2025
Even in trying times, UNHP is keeping the faith and remaining true to our mission. We are finding hope as we continue to work to improve Housing Connect alongside housing seekers and community developers, preserve and improve NYC multifamily housing for lower-income households, and collaborate with partners at all levels, private, public, and nonprofit.
We are living with a lot of uncertainty and fear right now. It makes our celebration’s theme of hope in 2025 more pertinent. At UNHP, we pride ourselves on being realistic. We don’t know what’s going to happen to a particular program or agency. However, we do know our history of finding ways to make things happen. We know that this record is based on the qualities, resources, and abilities of the people with whom we work in the neighborhood; in the offices of our various partners in the community, the non-profit, for-profit, and government sectors; and our own staff and board. We hope that by continuing to work together, we will be able to accomplish good things for our community in 2025.
UNHP is hoping that you will join us as a sponsor at our Keeping Hope Alive in 2025 celebration on Thursday, May 8th at Serviam Hall in the Bronx. At the end of last year, the NY Housing Conference named UNHP NonProfit of the Year – a great honor! An honor we would like to celebrate with the neighbors, partners, and supporters that are part of our mission-driven work.
