$49k awarded to new Homebuyer under the San Diego Black Homebuyer Program! Celebrated by Rep. Sara Jacobs, CA Senate Pro Tem Toni Atkins & Council President Pro Tem Monica Montgomery Steppe

On Friday, Feb. 25, joined by U.S. Congresswoman Sara Jacobs, California Senate Pro Tem Toni Atkins and Council President Pro Tem Monica Montgomery Steppe, a coalition of local nonprofit and government agencies introduced the most recent recipient of the San Diego Black Homebuyer Program, a local effort that provides grants for home ownership.

The featured grantee is Jordan Daniels, a Black and Jewish man originally from the Bay Area and is active in San Diego’s LGBTQ+ community. He recently completed his purchase of a 1 bedroom/1 bath, 741 square-foot condo in the College Area.

Daniels received a grant of $49,000 from the program that was launched last year. Since then, the program has provided grants to 18 San Diego-based Black homebuyers to purchase their first homes.
