“I enjoy serving on The Housing Fund Board because by doing so I am able to make a difference in increasing affordable housing in Tennessee, particularly Nashville and the surrounding counties. Since I have been on the Board the financing of the various projects with Habitat for Humanity in both Davidson and Williamson counties. The current administration of the Amazon grant makes me proud that THF has been recognized as an organization that can get the job done expediently.”

“Today, I am extremely proud of the board, the staff, and particularly our President/CEO, Marshall Crawford. Marshall has made a huge impact since being onboard as THF’s leader. This statement is not made lightly. With his leadership, THF is once again sought out and well respected in the communities we serve and the organizations we partner with. We are involved in activities that relate to our focus, as we are asked to participate on panels, boards and on committees that make an impact on decisions made throughout our communities regarding affordable housing and economic stability. We are financially sound and have attracted the attention of major partners as Amazon, who believes in our mission and our organization.”

“For the past 25 years, The Housing Fund has played a critical role in the discussion and activity around affordable housing. Always important, affordable housing has become an even more critical issue with the explosive growth in Nashville and surrounding area. The Housing Fund has been the hub connecting policy makers, financial institutions, developers and, most important, home buyers. It is a real honor to serve on the board with my fellow board members and the staff of The Housing Fund.”

“As a newly appointed Community Development Officer, The Housing Fund was the first equity investment that I worked with when it was created 25 years ago. Over the years, it has been great to see the organization become a leading catalyst for affordable housing development and homeownership. The organization continues to adapt to changes in the housing industry and continues to provide quality housing for families. It has been my privilege to partner with the organization and serve on the Board.”

“Affordable housing is a passion of mine, and there is such a big need in Nashville.  By serving on the board of The Housing Fund, it allows me to be part of the solution to the affordable housing crisis… I think I’m most proud that The Housing Fund is still here and making a huge impact in the community.  Several years ago, there was discussion about whether or not it made sense to continue The Housing Fund after changes in leadership. But, here we are, better than ever.”
