Welcome to the Neighborhood
Our Mission:
Front Porch Village is an 501(C)(3) planned transitional tiny home community that believes everyone deserves a stable foundation. It will be designed to meet the needs of single parent households with children including dependents up to the age of 21 AND enrolled in Higher Education. This transitional housing community is designed to give families a handup, not a handout. It is an opportunity to help them get back on their feet. We will be investing in the lives of these families by providing affordable housing, employment assistance, education assistance, teaching of trades, financial & budgeting education, being first time home owners and help restore them into self-sustaining individuals and family units with character and integrity. We hope to be REAL examples of how a healthy community cares for and functions to ensure we create a productive workforce, healthier families, and a stronger community one family at a time. WE WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO PARTNER WITH US!

simply helping Single Parent Families...
It's hard enough RAISING a family...
let alone being a single parent trying to make ends meet and trying to ensure your children are being well cared for. That's where we come in. We want to HELP!! We want to give those families a STABLE foundation.
Our desire is to partner with the community, not only providing affordable housing for these families in need, but to DO LIFE with them on a daily basis. And KEEP ON doing life with them even after they have transitioned from Front Porch Village. We need YOUR help to make this happen!
