Lakeview Village, a new 25-unit affordable housing project being spearheaded by Harvest House, has received a recent financial boost: Gulf Coast Community Foundation and its generous donors are providing a $500,000 matching challenge; every donation made toward the Lakeview Village campaign will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $500,000. Harvest House is working in partnership with One Stop Housing on Lakeview Village; the project is being funded in part by the Resilient SRQ CDBG-DR (Community Development Block Grant-Disaster Recovery) program as well as other foundations and generous donors. There will be 1-, 2- and 3-bedroom units available, with priority being given to educators, social workers and vulnerable seniors. Lakeview Village won't just provide North Sarasota residents with affordable housing - it will also provide a new revenue stream to support Harvest House's work to provide supportive/affordable housing, addiction recovery programs, and food security efforts, for years to come.
