The Greater Minnesota Housing Fund (GMHF), based in St. Paul, supports efforts that provide affordable housing options for families and individuals throughout the state.
This includes young people just getting started in life and parents working to support their children, along with new immigrants, multigenerational households and the formerly homeless.
