As we step into 2025, I'm incredibly proud to reflect on the remarkable strides we made in 2024, and even more excited about what lies ahead. At Manna Homes, our mission is simple yet profound: to create equitable, sustainable housing and open doors to homeownership. Every family we empower, every home we build, and every community we uplift brings us closer to a brighter future. Last year wasn't without its hurdles, but Team Manna showed what resilience and determination can achieve. Here are just a few of our highlights: 🏠 54 first-time homeowners created and 500+ families/individuals supported through our array of housing programs, and key collaborations with JPMorganChase #DCHousingAuthority #DCDHCD and #CapitalBank 💰 $114,000 awarded in "last mile" funding for closing cost and downpayment assistance through private partnerships with Building Bridges Across the River, GEICO and Target. 📊 85% retention rate: Our new Homeownership Impact Study revealed that the majority of Manna homeowners over the last 12 years are still thriving in their homes. 🤝 Policy wins: Collaborated with nonprofits, housing providers, and advocates to reform the Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP), ensuring effective support for those in need. 💰Innovation in Financial Health: Through support from Wells Fargo, Target, and PNC, we created a new Savings Match and Debt Reduction Program with 60 participants currently enrolled. 🌱 Expanded our reach through partnership with Orca Housing, LLC to preserve100 affordable housing units for seniors and families in Dayton, OH. 🏫 Allocated and closed $15 million in New Market Tax Credits (NMTCs) from the Jubilee-Manna CDE for re-development of Cedar Tree Academy. This year we are stepping up with a bold vision to deepen our impact by: - Growing beyond borders to tackle housing challenges in more communities. - Innovating in Financial Capabilities to create social impact that help families thrive. - Building stronger partnerships to create lasting change in the housing ecosystem. To our community, partners, champions and NeighborWorks America: thank you for joining us along this journey. Here's to supporting families, building communities, and making this a year to remember! #AffordableHousing #SocialImpact #CommunityDevelopment #Homeownership #FinancialEmpowerment #Partnership #Housing #MannaHomes Below are just a few members of our small but mighty team... with gratitude, HNY!

Reflecting on Friends of Manna 2024 – A Month Later, We’re Still Grateful! Just under a month ago, we gathered at the MLK Library in Washington, DC, for our annual Friends of Manna 2024 fundraiser. The memories of that unforgettable evening continue to inspire us, and we’re filled with deep gratitude for the incredible community that made it all possible. This year, we’re proud to share that we received the largest amount of support in the history of the organization and saw greater participation than ever before! The evening was a testament to the power of shared commitment. From our dedicated staff and partners to our board members, donors, and volunteers, every person brought something invaluable to the night. It was truly moving to hear stories from past and present homeowners, like Cheri Moore, who shared her joy about celebrating the holidays in her new home and her mission to empower youth with knowledge about financial health and homeownership. Throughout the event, our community had the opportunity to connect over inspiring presentations. Success Measures provided an exciting update on our upcoming Homeownership Impact Study, while Board Member Michael Bennett paid a heartfelt tribute to our founder, Reverend Jim Dickerson. President and CEO Sasha Gaye Angus shared remarks on the housing challenges we face locally and nationally—and how Manna is rising to the challenge with resilience, collaboration, and a forward-thinking vision for the future. Our guests enjoyed a wonderful evening with delicious food, stunning views of the city, and engaging conversations.
