Our Impact
Originally formed from the Samaritan Group and in 1992 was incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia as a 501(c)3 non-profit organization under the name “Gloucester Housing Partnership.” In 2022, the organization rebranded itself as “Rural Housing Partnership” in an effort to expand services outside the current area. Our mission is to assist indigent elderly, disabled homeowners so they can live sustainably and safely in their homes. Our home repairs include roofing, heating/cooling, plumbing, electrical, handicapped bathroom conversions, access ramps and graduated steps. We are focused on repairing health and safety issues in homes. Every client is individually screened for eligibility.
We receive referrals from the Gloucester County Department of Social Services, Healthy Families, Bay Aging, other community organizations, and from citizens of the County who are simply concerned about their neighbors.
