Community Development
Early Education
First Time Homebuer Education
The Monreal Foundation's goal is to provide opportunities for all people to thrive, build a strong resilient community, and ensure a more equitable society for all Austinites.
In terms of human development, the importance of early childhood education can’t be overstated. A child’s early years are the foundation for his or her future development, providing a strong base for lifelong learning and learning abilities, including cognitive and social development. Well-established research continues to emphasize the importance of early childhood education as an essential building block of a child’s future success. The Monreal Foundation provides backpacks an school supplies prior to every school year to those in need.
As the link between sustainable homeownership and quality counseling and education becomes clear, stakeholders across the housing industry agree that there is a vital need to ensure that high quality counseling and education becomes the norm across the nation. The Monreal Foundation provides First Time Homebuyer Education.
Down Payment Assistance
One of the biggest challanges for homeowners is coming up with the funds to cover the down payment and closing costs associated with a mortgage loan. To bridge the gap, The Monreal Foundation provides Down Payment Assistance Program Counseling.
Lease To Own Assistance
How to buy a lease to own home. A lease to own option gives you the time you need to build your credit history, make certain you like your neighborhood, and start building home equity you can use toward your purchase. Compare that to just renting, where you pay thousands of dollars a year after year without seeing a payback. The Monreal Foundation provides lease to own counseling.
Small Business Counseling
The Monreal Foundation creates economic opportunity and financial stability for underserved small business owners by providing access to capital, education and resources to build healthy small businesses.
