Charlotte, NC is facing a growing affordable housing crisis as rising rents outpace wages, putting pressure on essential workers and families. To address this, Foundation For The Carolinas launched the Charlotte Housing Opportunity Investment Fund (CHOIF) in 2019, raising $53 million to leverage private capital alongside the city's public Housing Trust Fund.

There’s a detailed breakdown…
