0% interest. $0 fees. Every dollar tracked.

The donation
that never stops working.

Your gift pays a family's rent as a zero-interest loan. When they repay it, the same money goes out again to the next family at risk of eviction.

Others process applications. We prevent evictions.

How your money revolves

Your gift becomes a loan, and the loan comes back.

Most donations are used one time. Ours are different because our rent relief is a loan at 0% interest with no fees. Families repay when they are back on their feet, and every repayment funds the next household facing eviction.

  1. You donate

    Your dollars join the revolving fund.

  2. Rent gets paid

    We pay the landlord directly, usually within days, before an eviction is ever filed.

  3. The family stays

    Same apartment, same school, same neighbors. The crisis ends quietly.

  4. The loan is repaid

    0% interest and no fees, on a schedule the family sets when they are stable again.

  5. It goes out again

    The repaid dollars fund the next family. Your gift keeps circulating.

Every dollar is tracked from your gift to the landlord's account and back. You get the report either way, and we publish outcomes whether they flatter us or not.

Why rent is where we start

A stable home is built from many pieces.

Rent is the keystone, but stability is a system. When one piece breaks, the whole home is at risk. We hold the pieces together.

Housing

Rent is the keystone. Our 0% loans stop evictions before they start.

Food

A family choosing between rent and groceries shouldn't have to.

Transportation

The car that gets you to the job that pays the rent.

Medicine

One ER bill shouldn't cost a family their lease.

Security

A deposit, a lock, a lease in your own name.

Emergencies

The $400 surprise that starts the spiral. We catch it early.

Borrowers, not cases

Three loans, three homes still occupied.

These families did the hard part themselves. We covered the gap and got out of the way.

Hospital food service cut her hours in a slow quarter and she fell $1,180 behind. We paid her landlord directly within four days of her application, before anything reached a courtroom.

14 months later, repaid in full. Her kids never changed schools.

A $2,300 transmission repair took the rent money. The car kept her job, and a $950 loan from the fund kept her apartment. She set her own repayment schedule at $90 a month.

11 months later, paid off. Her repayments have since gone out to two more families.

A gray shingled house with a wide white wraparound porch and a tidy green lawn.

An ER visit for her son left a bill that swallowed two paychecks. She applied on her phone in Spanish on a Sunday night and was approved before Tuesday. Rent arrived on time.

16 months later, repaid in full. No filing ever hit her record.

Homes pictured are representative, not the borrowers' residences. We share stories with each family's permission and never publish an address or a photo of a borrower's home.

The evidence

The problem is enormous. The fix is early.

Eviction is rarely about one huge debt. It is usually a few hundred dollars arriving at the wrong moment. Reaching families before the filing costs a fraction of what comes after.

3.6M

Eviction cases are filed in the United States every year.

50%+

Filings now run more than 50% above pre-pandemic levels.

Need help with rent?

Behind on rent? Here is exactly what happens.

01

Apply in minutes

On any device, in any of 50+ languages. No office visit, no paper stack, no interrogation.

02

Approved in hours, not weeks

Our review runs in about 4 hours. Traditional programs average 45 days, and evictions move faster than that.

03

Rent paid directly to your landlord

You never touch the money and neither does a middleman. The ledger clears and the pressure stops.

0% interest. No fees. You repay when you are back on your feet, on a schedule you set.  Apply for help

Radical transparency

How we keep every dollar accountable.

Our team runs each loan on our own case system: application, review, payment to the landlord, and repayment, all on one ledger. Nothing moves without a record.

The same infrastructure has moved $40M in 40 days and processed 380,000 applications, with real-time payment rails and fraud protection built in. That track record now runs every Stable Home Fund program.

For funders, governments, and property owners

Bring rent relief to your city.

We design and administer complete rent relief programs, from application to disbursement to public reporting, so your dollars reach families in days instead of quarters.

  • Funders: a revolving structure means your grant keeps lending long after the check clears.
  • Governments: we run intake, eligibility, payments, and compliance under your rules and your brand.
  • Property owners: guaranteed direct payment beats a vacancy, a turnover, and a court date.
