Those Affected by Foreclosure
The foreclosure process can put people in unbelievably uncomfortable situations, which not only affect their income, but their health and well being as well. Below are the stories of some of the people we've worked with.
"I owe twice as much as what my house is worth"
Alvin | Cambria Heights, Queens
"I have spent the last two years begging Wells Fargo to acknowledge that my wife passed away"

"Wells Fargo disregarded our agreement and foreclosed on me anyway"

The Spool, and the Compass...
Our story can best be described by the spool and compass, shown in our logo.
The spool of thread signifies our stories, which
we share to create a path for all of us to find our way back home.
The compass helps us to remain focused on our sense of home and community, which guides us through our toughest battles with the legal system.
