Our Vision:

A permanent supply of affordable housing to meet the needs of the North Okanagan.

Mission Statement:

To increase the supply of affordable housing for individuals and families with low to moderate income.

Mandate:

The Land Trust has identified minimum wage and entry level working individuals and families as the "forgotten population". As property values have increased dramatically in the North Okanagan, rental and purchased properties have become few and unattainable for many of the employees that service our community. The Land Trust is focused on developing a permanent inventory of housing for this important group of citizens. They are also open to developing and managing affordable rental housing for seniors.

Method:

The Land Trust solicits and manages public and private donations of land and other assets for the purpose of purchasing and managing land for housing.

Status:

A non-profit society governed by a Board of Directors consisting of business representatives from the Vernon & District Communities, including members of the Legal, Financial, Accounting, Real Estate, law enforcement & business consulting segments.
