HIP wishes to acknowledge and thank the organizations who have sponsored HIP projects, donated volunteer labor and materials to help HIP maintain its housing and keep it affordable for very low income people with special needs.

HomeDepot

Community Impact’s HomeDepot team really touched the resident in one of HIP’s projects. Team members landscaped the front of the property and painted the interior of a two-bedroom unit during CI Day 1998. HomeDepot not only supplied the volunteer labor, but they also provided all landscaping and painting supplies. Noting that the vintage carpet needed to be replaced, they went above and beyond the call of duty by replacing it free of charge. The resident at the site said no one had ever done such things for him in his 69 years.

Kelly Moore

Kelly Moore has donated over 200 gallons of paint to help HIP keep its projects in tip-top shape. They go out of their way to provide great service without making a dime.

NARPM

The San Jose Chapter of the National Association of Residential Property Managers (NARPM) sponsored renovation of one of HIP’s projects. The project serves six very low-income people with psychiatric disabilities. Some 30 NARPM members and affiliates raised over $1,000 to help with the project, trimmed back a heavily overgrown yard, painted the exterior, fixed all the appliances, and replaced window coverings, flooring and water closets during May 1998. The transformation of the property was truly astonishing.

Netcom

CI’s Netcom volunteers painted the exterior of a spacious single family home in East San Jose during CI Day 1998. They did such a good job painting, neighbors wandered by to see if this team could paint their homes too!
