Doors of Hope
One unit.
One lease.
One chance.
You control something no grant can buy.
Doors of Hope asks multifamily owners and operators to make one unit available to one young person, for one year, in the Salt Lake City market. Hayes identifies and prepares the resident, coordinates the placement, helps with deposit and early rent where appropriate, and stays involved for the duration.
What the owner provides
Availability of one unit, and a willingness to work with us on screening criteria.
What Hayes provides
A prepared and supported resident. A named point of contact who stays reachable. Help with deposit and early rent where appropriate.
And a call from us before a problem becomes a filing.
What this pledge is
A non-binding statement of intent for our first cohort, opening Q4 2026. Nothing is committed and no unit is held until we sit down together and put terms in writing.
Other ways
to participate.
If a unit is not the right fit, these matter and we will use them.
Executive time. Board service, advisory work, teaching a Life Lab module, or a seat at The Table.
Host a Table dinner. A community room, one evening a month.
Resident giving. An opt-in campaign at your communities. Entirely voluntary, never connected to leasing or rent.
Direct funding. Deposits, early rent, and program costs.
