Warren Village

Kirsten never thought she'd own a home.

She moved into Warren Village in 2018 as a young mother with a two-year-old son. At the time, she was simply seeking stability.

Three years later, she had a job offer from a major tech company. Her Family Advocate, Kaycie, mentioned something Kirsten had never considered:

"'With this type of income, you would be able to buy a house,'" she remembers Kaycie saying. "That was never something I thought would be possible."

Two years after leaving Warren Village, Kirsten bought a five-bedroom home.

At Warren Village, we often say of our program that housing is foundational, but our people and programs are transformational.

Attaining stability is just the beginning for our families. Behind every success like Kirsten's is a teacher, advocate, or mental health clinician who stood by every step of the way.

Your gift supports the people who make that possible. Every dollar up to $20,000 will be matched by one of our generous donors. Link in comments!

Ever wondered what a board member does at a nonprofit?

Nicole Marquez knows the job intimately. At the end of March, she finished her second term -- equal to six years -- on the board at Warren Village.

We sat down to ask her what it's really like. What inspired her to join the board? What advice does she have for prospective board members? And what is she most proud of accomplishing with Warren Village?
