The Triangle is often found in various elements of construction including building support and trusses. Equally as strong, are the three sides of HomeAid’s Triangle, as they are each critical components to fulfilling our mission and clearly demonstrate how HomeAid exists to serve those who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness.

HomeAid Colorado History
The HomeAid model is the gift that keeps on giving.
HomeAid Colorado brings together construction-industry professionals and affiliates to complete construction projects and provide critical resources to non-profit care providers who assist those in our community at a high risk of homelessness.
As the charity of choice for the Colorado Association of Home Builders, HomeAid matches licensed, construction industry professionals with non-profit care providers who assist those at high risk of homelessness, to complete construction projects that fit their scope and size of work.
This partnership allows non-profit care providers to focus their energy and resources on providing direct services to those experiencing homelessness while builders provide construction-related technical assistance, labor, and donated materials to complete construction projects at a fraction of the cost.
Once residents stabilize and move on to self-sufficiency, the home in which they were living becomes available for the next person or family that needs help.
HomeAid Colorado is one of 19 local Affiliates across 13 states.
HomeAid is a leading nonprofit developer of housing and programmatic facilities for people experiencing or at risk of homelessness.
