Preventing homelessness since 1990.


The Housing Opportunities Program is a microfinance program dedicated to the prevention of homelessness in the Boston area. HOP runs a revolving loan fund and provides no-interest credit and counseling to clients in danger of being evicted from their homes. Staffed entirely by volunteers and funded entirely by donations, HOP is 'living proof' that, even in the world's most developed nation, microfinance is a viable method of combating poverty and destitution.
