Interfaith Housing Services Holds Ribbon Cutting for Local Historic House
In January, the Ground Breaking/Ribbon Cutting
was held for Interfaith Housing Services at the
Hinkle House. This is their first house in Dodge
City for their Abandoned Housing Program.
In October of 2012, the City of Dodge City was
a recipient of the grant money that the Kansas
Housing Resources Corporation awarded through
the Moderate Income Housing Program in the
amount of $100,000 on behalf of the Abandoned
Housing Program. That grant money along with
the $50,000 the City has budgeted and the $20,000
the Development Corporation donated towards the
Abandoned Housing Program will be a tremendous
start for this project and the program. Interfaith has
begun recruiting volunteers to work on this project,
if you are interested in helping, please contact Kaci
Davignon at Interfaith Housing Services located at
100 Military Avenue, Suite 104 or (620) 662.8370.
