Home Headquarters: fighting poverty in Syracuse through helping first-time homeowners
“Home Headquarters is a Syracuse nonprofit that helps first-time homeowners trying to break the cycle of poverty. That is an urgent need, especially in neighborhoods made up mostly of people of color.
Tonight, Home Headquarters is celebrating its 25th anniversary.
One sentiment expressed tonight by Kerry Quaglia, the Chief Executive Officer at Home Headquarters, is that ‘you’re never a former customer.’
The partnerships they have with first-time homeowners—particularly in low-income communities—have the potential to change our neighborhoods.
‘We do homeownership counseling and financial education, we do community development lending, we do real estate development, and we do property management,’ said Quaglia.”
