US BANK <\/span> EMERGES AS
IE HOUSING CHAMPION<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]Powered by a generous $1 million gift from U.S. Bank, IECF and Neighborhood Partnership Housing Services Inc. (NPHS) have rolled out the Inland Empire Down Payment Assistance program (IEDPA), making homeownership more accessible for low- and moderate-income families in Riverside and San Bernardino counties.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were inspired by our work with the San Diego Foundation\u2019s down payment assistance program a few years ago,\u201d says Rockette Ewell<\/span>, Vice President, California Region Community Affairs Manager for U.S. Bank, when explaining her company\u2019s decision to invest. \u201cThe Inland Empire DPA program brings together resources from both the public and private sectors to support access to homeownership for families who otherwise would not be able to make the dream of owning a home a reality.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ewell has spent most of her more than 30 years in banking in community affairs and corporate social responsibility. \u201cAt U.S. Bank, I\u2019ve had the privilege of supporting our efforts to create stable jobs, better homes, and more vibrant communities,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

Ewell is quick to recognize U.S. Bank\u2019s long-term relationship with IECF and the fact that Humane Housing is a key element of the Vital Conditions Framework. \u201cWe know IECF shares our focus on supporting access to affordable housing and will collaborate with us to ensure that our contribution will have a meaningful impact in the region.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ewell applauds IECF\u2019s partnership with NPHS to provide pre-purchase counseling to prospective home buyers as part of the down payment assistance program. \u201cEngaging NPHS completes the circle of support for prospective home buyers,\u201d she says, noting U.S. Bank\u2019s long relationship with NPHS that includes philanthropic support, board service, and volunteer engagement by their bankers.<\/p>\n

Additionally, U.S Bank will be the Housing Champion at this year\u2019s IECF Policy and Philanthropy Summit. \u201cWhile we\u2019ll be one of the presenters, we\u2019ll be surrounded by leaders speaking about topics that will help us keep U.S. Bank at the vanguard of critical issues affecting the Inland Empire and beyond,\u201d Ewell says.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#4b4b4b” global_colors_info=”{}” global_module=”5632″ theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,1_4,1_4,1_4″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”1″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” max_width=”2400px” module_alignment=”center” custom_padding=”|20px||20px|false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_css_main_element=”align-self: flex-end;” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”|10px|20px|10px|false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n
