We are proud to bring back the 4th running of Leaves to Leases benefitting A NEW LEASE ON LIFE https://www.triangleaptassn.org/a-new-lease-on-life.

A New Lease on Life is a program of Copper Circle and assists those experiencing homelessness to get back on their feet through stable housing by providing an available apartment home at a reduced rate over a 12-24 month period. The program offers a hand up to those in need. Our purpose is to provide an essential need through stable housing thereby allowing these families to establish up to 2 years of positive rental history thereby allowing them to remain as market renters or in some instances to purchase a home of their very own.

THEIR MISSION STATEMENT: _OUR MISSION IS TO BUILD STRONGER COMMUNITIES BY HARNESSING THE SKILLS AND RESOURCES OF THE RENTAL HOUSING INDUSTRY TO ADVANCE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND EFFORTS TO END HOMELESSNESS._
