Pastor Marcos and Melissa Diaz of Kaleo Ministries embody the true essence of service, walking the talk in their unwavering commitment to our most vulnerable neighbors and extended community members. They are the hands and feet of God, dedicated to supporting the healing and wholeness of individuals and families, including youth of all ages.
Through private donors, they have done more for the mind, body, and spirit of those led to their doors than many well-funded organizations that, all too often, sustain the revolving door of homelessness rather than truly ending it.
Hope City Refuge will be a beacon of hope, building upon the powerful calling placed on the lives of Pastors Marcos and Melissa Diaz. May God continue to bless them with open doors, resources, strength, wisdom, courage, and love as they extend Kaleo Ministries’ transformative work to all whose lives they touch.
JacQueline M. supported: Support Hope City Refuge – Address the Unhoused Crisis in Orange CountyI acquired my Real Estate Brokers’ license in 1986. I had the opportunity of being the first Broker in the state to market Low Income Housing Tax Credit Properties (S42). I also managed the Section 8 program for the CDA for almost ten years. I worked and volunteered in many other roles always advocating for others. From 2014 until the present, I’ve found myself in the position of advocating for myself as I’ve attempted to work with an absentee foreign owner through local site staff and through a local long term developer who only recently sold the property to another owner with constant staff turnover.
I care because constant staff turnover has made it difficult to establish a good working relationship and policies and procedures I’ve known as standard in Fair Housing and landlord/tenant rights no longer seem to be standard practice making communication difficult.
Mary supported: Madison Tenant Bill of RightsRent is perpetually rising in Dane county, pricing the working class out of homes near our jobs. We all deserve our own private place to live, without needing multiple jobs, roommates, or an excessive commute to get by.
Dawn supported: Madison Tenant Bill of Rights#WeAreCommunity
Garrett supported: Madison Tenant Bill of RightsThe distribution of power between renters and landlords leaves a serious discussion to be had. As the population of Madison increases, renters are found more and more powerless as landlords and property owners hold the supply of available housing. This unequal distribution of supply gives landlords and property owners the liberty to price their properties at a rate where many renters would need to nearly double their income to live comfortably. This needs to end and there needs to be rent stabilization in Madison, amongst other accommodations for those who simply want to live in Madison without living paycheck to paycheck.
Cameron supported: Madison Tenant Bill of RightsWhen I was living as a renter, I had several landlords. One thing they all had in common was that they would unilaterally decide to bend or break the rules of the lease agreement leaving me with no recourse but to accept their unannounced showings, bogus fees, and unfixed heating systems. A tenant bill of rights is a step in the direction of protecting renters from this kind of callous disregard for their need to have a safe, stable, and affordable living space.
Colin supported: Madison Tenant Bill of RightsOur family has lived in the Little Italy neighborhood since early in the 1900's. Erecting another high rise building just adds to the massive corporate takeover of the local area. I oppose the Highh Rise Columbia Street Aparment Development, which will only serve to increase the density of an already dense area of our town.
Anthony F. Giacalone supported: Stop High Rise Columbia Street Apartment Development on the Middletown HillsideThis is a neighborhood of narrow, one-way streets and cottages. We're also blessed with folks who do their best to navigate the confusion to enjoy the wonderful, locally owned restaurants. Trying to build a 161-unit building on this narrow street is like squeezing a full grown woman i to Barbie clothes. Doesn't fit and no one is comfortable.
Megan supported: Stop High Rise Columbia Street Apartment Development on the Middletown HillsideSince 1997 when we moved to Milford we have seen an explosion of development in this quaint New England town. The traffic, the overcrowding of supermarkets, community services overwhelmed…enough is enough!
Jacqueline supported: Oppose DevelopmentI have lived in poverty most of my childhood til I was adopted, that quickly changed. Put back into poverty and into the streets only a few years later can make a big impact on a person's startup. I'm finally ready to take charge and make a change in this world starting with my home.
Ronald supported: Eradicating Poverty In Compliance - Housing Our People EverywhereYou’re not alone — a community of supporters is ready to back you.
