Your Gift Is Doubled by Our Lender Partners
Every private donation is matched by HCA's participating lending partners — turning your gift into two DPA Scholarship Grants for deserving first-time homebuyers.
YOUR donation of $5,705 turns into $11,410
= TWO Life-Changing Down Payment Assistance (DPA) Scholarship Grants
150,000 Families Can't Close Each Year
Despite having sufficient income and good credit, many families cannot achieve homeownership. Each year, over 150,000 potential homebuyers can't complete their purchase simply because they're short on cash to close.
Your gift removes that barrier. With every $5,705 donation, a DPA scholarship can be awarded — and because HCA lender partners match every private donation, your impact is doubled. You're not just helping someone buy a house; you're helping them build stability and generational wealth.
Provides the critical down payment most first-time buyers can't afford on their own
Helps cover closing costs and fees that often derail low- to moderate-income buyers
Funds financial coaching and pre-purchase education so buyers are truly prepared
Opens the door to new neighborhoods, schools, and opportunities previously out of reach
