Who We Are

The Housing Fund of Central Alabama provides grants to non-profits for core operating support on a limited basis, technical assistance and programs related to capacity building in the non-profit affordable housing development community. The Fund also may partner with its umbrella organization, the Housing Enterprise of Central Alabama (HECA), to provide financing to qualified private and non-profit developers in our 12-county footprint. The Fund also supports ancillary services such as homebuyer training and credit counseling that help to guarantee the success and sustainability of communities.

They are: The Community Foundation of Greater Birmingham, the Community Foundation of Calhoun County and the Walker Area Community Foundation, Regions Bank, Compass Bank, New South Federal Savings Bank, First American Bank, Superior Bank, and Aliant Bank.
