LHBA & Phoinix Accepting Grant Applications
Posted by: | Comments
Last month, LHBA and Phoinix Development consummated a joint marketing agreement, which allows LHBA and Phoinix to work together for the benefit of the citizens of Louisiana. Over the summer the team has been working diligently in identifying several upcoming grant opportunities in excess of $150 million dollars that we can work on together.
Phoinix is now in need of help from local contractors and associates to put together a team that is ready to execute on these upcoming construction projects.
Phoinix Development Foundation, Inc. is a Baton Rouge based nonprofit construction management organization, which was founded after the destruction left behind by hurricanes Katrina and Rita. With the assistance of the members of LHBA, the organization now has the capacity to construct commercial infrastructure within communities and provide home ownership opportunities to low and moderate income families throughout the state of Louisiana while ensuring permanent housing affordability.
Phoinix’s mission is based upon the belief that (1) all working families deserve a home or apartment of their own, and (2) communities with homeowners from a broad socio-economic range are the strongest and most vibrant and (3) education can rebuild a community.
