In 2022 the City of South Bend's Community Homebuyers Corporation (CHC) provided $220,800.00 of CDBG funds in the form of forgivable mortgage subsidies to nine families, enabling them to become homeowners. These subsidies were leveraged with $883,200.00 in private mortgage funding. CDBG provides a mortgage subsidy of 20%of the purchase price of a home, not to exceed $26,000, and local lenders represented on the CHC board pool their funds to provide the remaining dollars. CHC offers financing to clients that are typically not conventionally lendable. Pre-and post-purchase counseling required for the mortgage subsidy program is a major contributing factor to its success. Rebuilding Together (formerly known as Christmas in April) has aided homeowners in various neighborhoods throughout the community since 1989.

Rebuilding Together expended $256,000 in CDBG funds and it is estimated that donated labor and materials added $2,000, and donated warehouse rent added an additional $9,900 to the project.
