$60,000 Goal

46% of Americans say one unexpected expense could threaten their housing security.

Homelessness rarely begins with a single crisis; it begins with impossible tradeoffs. When a retiree on a fixed income must choose between rent and medical care, or a single mother between keeping the lights on and repairing the vehicle she needs to get to work, the problem isn't the choice they make. In their time of need, our neighbors should not have to sacrifice one basic necessity to afford another.

Your support helps prevent homelessness in our community. When neighbors face an unexpected hardship, your generosity can help them get through the crisis before a temporary setback becomes a housing emergency.



"I would not have been able to move out of an unhealthy housing situation without Neighbor to Neighbor's help. The stress was worsening my mental health and putting my ability to care for my children at risk. N2N's assistance allowed us to transition to a safer, more stable home. I'm incredibly grateful for my family's fresh start in a healthier home."  ~  Jennifer







With community support last year, 

  • 458 local families avoided eviction and remained safely housed; and 
  • 72% of new Neighbor to Neighbor residents overcame homelessness upon moving into an N2N apartment home.

Your gift is an investment in a stronger, more stable community. With your support, Neighbor to Neighbor can continue its 56-year mission of providing, securing, and preserving sustainable housing opportunities. 

Together, we can protect what matters most: home.

Mission

Neighbor to Neighbor opens doors and advances lives from homelessness through homeownership by providing sustainable housing, supportive services, and education primarily to the Larimer County community.

We envision communities where everyone has opportunity and access to a stable home, because home is the foundation for success.

Background Statement

Without the visionary leadership of Lou Stitzel, Neighbor to Neighbor would not exist. In 1970, Lou organized a group of compassionate neighbors to help a local Fort Collins family that was at risk of losing their home. By joining forces to raise funds, this grassroots movement not only kept this family from becoming homeless, it also led to the creation of Neighbor to Neighbor (N2N).

Since then, N2N programs have expanded to meet the growing need for affordable housing and self-sufficiency programs in Larimer County, including N2N's HUD-Certified Renter and Homeownership programs and Affordable Housing program. Due to growing community needs, some programs are expanding to assist our neighbors in Weld County.

Today, we continue to honor Lou's legacy with our steadfast commitment to overcoming present-day housing challenges with creative, sustainable solutions and great care and compassion for our neighbors.
