Help Build Hope in East Kentucky
Home is more than a place - it's a promise. Please help us get more of our neighbors homeward bound!

Help HDA Build Homes of Hope & Rebuild Lives
In Eastern Kentucky, every hammer swing carries the hope of a family finding refuge. After the devastating floods of 2022 and 2025—and amid long-standing poverty and affordability challenges—thousands of our neighbors still lack safe, stable housing. Through our East Kentucky Homeward Bound fund, the Housing Development Alliance is on a mission to change that by building new homes, repairing flood-damaged houses and making homes flood resilient, and creating affordable rental opportunities, which are severely lacking in our area, for low-income individuals and families.
We cannot fulfill this promise without your support.
Eastern Kentucky is more than a statistic - it's home to families who have weathered generations of economic hardship, and now, catastrophic flooding. Public aid is vanishing. We must step up, and with your help, we can give flood-impacted and low-income families a foundation to build back stronger!
Why Your Gift Matters
- Families displaced by back-to-back floods can't afford to rent or rebuild, remaining in housing limbo, with few options and often nowhere to turn. Many choose to live in overcrowded living conditions with friends or family members, or in some cases, in trailers, campers or even sheds they've moved right back into the same place where they were flooded.
- Low-income seniors and single parents struggle to afford rising rents and costly repairs.
- A secure home is more than four walls—it’s the foundation for health, education, and opportunity.
