Allentown Nonprofit Ripple Community Inc. Advances Affordable Housing Projects
Ripple Community Inc., an Allentown-based nonprofit, is actively working on affordable housing initiatives, including the conversion of a former church into apartments. The organization has recently made significant strides in this area, having acquired and opened a half-dozen apartments at 814 W. Gordon St., where the average rent is set at $525. This project marks a notable expansion of the nonprofit's efforts, which previously focused on subsidizing rents for clients. The ongoing conversion of a former Chew Street church into 'deeply affordable' units further demonstrates Ripple Community Inc.'s commitment to addressing the housing crisis in Allentown.
