The Columbus Cottage Program is an outreach program to deserving elderly in our community whose living conditions put them at risk, because they do not have adequate resources to provide necessary improvements or repairs on their own.
The Columbus Cottage Program is designed:
- to assist elderly, impoverished residents living in substandard conditions
- to build the homes on the recipients own land, keeping them in their own neighborhood with cherished family memories and friends
How It Works
Resident makes application for the Columbus Cottage Program. The Columbus Cottage Program committee will select potential homeowners that meet the basic program guidelines.
The homeowner must:
- Be 62 years old or older
- Own their home/property
- Be low to moderate income
