HiFi Farms to Co-Sponsor Yes For Affordable Homes Campaign Fundraiser
Please join HiFi Farms and friends for light fare, delicious wine, and friendly conversation on Wednesday, October 26th in service of the Yes For Affordable Homes campaign. This event is free and open to the public.
About Yes For Affordable Homes: Working parents and seniors should be able to afford housing, and still have enough money for groceries and necessities – but our community’s skyrocketing rents are making that impossible for too many. Portland has a shortage of about 24,000 affordable homes and apartments for families and seniors making less than $37,000 per year.
On November 8, Portland voters will have a chance to vote YES for affordable housing, by approving a historic bond measure. If approved by voters, the affordable housing bond would raise to $258.4 million to build or acquire 1,300 affordable housing units in Portland, housing approximately 2,900 people each year.
Yes For Affordable Homes is a broad coalition of individuals and organizations working to support the affordable housing bond measure, and make Portland a place everyone can afford to call home.
