Fund for Housing and Opportunity

Our future depends on ensuring safe, affordable homes in thriving communities today.

Overview

The Fund for Housing and Opportunity™ (FHO) is a leading grantmaking collaborative working to protect renters and end homelessness. Together, we can have a greater impact on recreating a housing system that is just and fair, built on values of equity, inclusion, and shared prosperity.

Strategy and Funding Priorities

To address racial injustice and housing instability, FHO is committed to making investments across three interdependent priority areas that will spark large-scale change.

FHO News

While our core beliefs and purpose remain the same, those who know us may notice we have a new name. FHO is now the Fund for Housing and Opportunity, rather than Funders for Housing and Opportunity. While the shift is subtle, it is intended to reflect our core value that the people closest to the problem are closest to the solution and are better served through more restorative philanthropic practices.

FHO's Commitment to Racial Equity

Deeply rooted systems of racial bias, discrimination, and segregation greatly limit the housing options and life opportunities of millions of Black, Brown, Indigenous, and People of Color. The Fund for Housing and Opportunity (FHO) is dedicated to dismantling racial inequities, repairing harms, and restructuring systems to ensure equitable housing and life outcomes for all people. We are also committed to supporting organizations that build the leadership, power, and wealth of people facing housing instability, especially BIPOC communities, who rightfully must be at the forefront of advancing housing security and racial justice for all people.
