JOIN US AT OUR NEXT (FREE!) EVENT: Thursday, May 8th from 6:00 - 8:00 PM

LEAP Housing and supporters of Idaho’s Yes in God’s Backyard (YIGBY) initiative invite you to join us at King of Glory Lutheran Church in Boise on May 8th for a convening of like-minded, faithful individuals with a desire to use their financial resources to further the kingdom through housing our neighbors. 

‘Love Thy Neighbor: Faith-Aligned People Funding Housing’ is a venue for learning, fellowship, and inspiration — bringing our faith community together for an evening of discussion and actionable steps you can take to fund the housing work being done to create attainable and affordable price points for Idaho. Join us at YIGBY’s latest proposed housing project next door to King of Glory, who has partnered with LEAP Housing to create 8 homes on underutilized church land. The program will provide the backstory of the YIGBY movement, the Treasure Valley’s housing needs, an overview of the King of Glory partnership, and an invitation to contribute your resources to support YIGBY projects. 

• This FREE event will be catered by local staple Goodwood Barbecue.

• See the project site of a current Yes In God’s Backyard project in Boise.

• Hear from people just like you who made a faith-aligned decisions to fund housing.

• Learn how you can use your faith-aligned resources today to further housing affordability.

• Meet the team at LEAP Housing, including CEO Bart Cochran and the new YIGBY Director, Joe Bankard.

LEAP Housing is an Idaho-based nonprofit that is focused on innovative solutions to housing affordability issues in our state’s communities. LEAP was started by faith-motivated Bart Cochran, a multigenerational Idahoan and licensed Realtor, who saw a growing number of households unable to access housing options that they could afford in Idaho. Led by faith, Bart decided to act. LEAP serves over a thousand Idahoans each year and has added nearly 500 housing opportunities that local wages can afford to communities across Idaho, 68 of which were created from YIGBY partnerships. Click here to learn more about our YIGBY work in Idaho.
