Our Story

We help hard-working, responsible people who, if they are the average working person living in an apartment, are living paycheck to paycheck, have little to no savings and are spending more than 30% of their income on housing. They are also carrying credit card or other debt.

Join us as we help keep responsible residents in their apartments during an unexpected financial emergency and also help them better prepare for future emergencies.

The Resident Relief Foundation

We exist to be the bridge that helps responsible residents stay in their homes during a singular, unexpected financial emergency.

Whether it’s a temporary job interruption, an auto accident, a medical emergency, a victim of a natural disaster, or something else, our desire is to provide qualified residents with housing stability during a chaotic time and help them avoid eviction, a forced move, or, worse, becoming homeless.
