The Candle Light Project acquires and rehabilitates residential properties throughout California, creating pathways to homeownership for low-to-moderate income families.
The Candle Light Project is a California-based nonprofit dedicated to addressing the affordable housing crisis by acquiring and rehabilitating residential properties across the state. We work to make homeownership attainable for families who have been priced out of the market — restoring properties and restoring opportunity at the same time.
Founded and operated in California, we are a lean, mission-driven organization with a track record of real property acquisition, renovation, and placement. Our work spans both Northern and Southern California, and we continue to grow our portfolio and community impact.
"The Candle Light Project acquires and rehabilitates residential properties across California to preserve and expand affordable homeownership opportunities for low-to-moderate income families, preventing displacement and strengthening communities one home at a time."
We identify and acquire residential properties throughout California, focusing on distressed and undervalued homes in communities with critical affordable housing needs.
Each property is fully renovated to modern, livable standards. We manage complete rehabilitation projects — structural, systems, and finishes — using licensed contractors and quality materials.
Rehabilitated homes are made available to qualified low-to-moderate income families, creating genuine pathways to homeownership, community stability, and generational wealth.
