Funding Priority and Principles
VB Home Now prioritizes requests for funding that provides resources, creates partnerships, aides in, and addresses gaps within community directly impacting those individuals experiencing a housing crisis. Specifically, they are looking for innovative projects that contribute to the Virginia Beach homeless services system, making homelessness rare, brief and nonrecurring:
- To make homelessness rare they will need to strengthen the homeless response system’s capacity to prevent as many households from experiencing homelessness by investing in programs that provide prevention services. Prevention services include the provision of financial assistance and a moderate level of case management to households who are experiencing a financial housing crisis and are most vulnerable to experiencing homelessness.
Eligibility Criteria
- Funding requests are generally funded to organizations with tax-exemption under section 501 (c) 3 of the Internal Revenue Code.
- VB Home Now funds are exclusively intended to build programmatic capacity and provide direct assistance to clients in need. They do not fund operating costs such as salaries, fringe benefits, insurance or an organization’s rent/mortgage or utility expenses.
