About Partners for Affordable Housing

Partners for Affordable Housing facilitates nationwide collaboration and coordination among non-profit community housing providers and public, private, and philanthropic supporters (P4 partners) to attract investment in and funding for the acceleration of more dignified affordable housing. We connect P4 partners to existing resources and knowledge from key players in the sector and raise awareness for this important cause among the public. Our approach is three-fold: 1) Collective Investment We facilitate the stacking of investments combining non-profit affordable housing project opportunities with public, private (corporate) and philanthropic investments across Canada to get projects to market faster. Non-profit providers have access to grants for “top-up” funding to complete funded projects or equity to bolster eligibility for government, public or private financing. 2) Collective voice We provide a national and unified voice for individuals, destigmatizing the need for housing, dispelling myths often associated with those most impacted and raising awareness of the front-line organizations developing solutions. We promote the need for greater investment and help Canadians understand the important role they can play. 3) Collective knowledge Within the sector, there is a wealth of resources, tools, and knowledge. We provide a valuable directory for P4 partners and capitalize on tools like CMHC’s Capital Connect (an online project repository) to bring together social purpose investors/funders with non-profit providers and developers looking to secure project capital. Our work is gaining momentum! Partners for Affordable Housing has received a letter of support from CMHC, $250,000 of seed funding from the Government of Alberta, and we are hoping for more partner announcements soon.
