On August 21, the Town of Cary hosted a breakfast at Cary Founded to celebrate the awarding of over $7.2 million in grants. The 2024-2025 Cary Housing and Community Development Block Grantees shared breakfast with Councilmembers then attended the kickoff training in August to learn about the next steps in their grant process.
Earlier this year, the Cary Town Council approved the 2024–2025 Cary Housing and CDBG Annual Action Draft Plan, awarding 15 grants to 11 Cary nonprofits and developers working in the housing sector.
These funds will facilitate the construction of 226 new affordable housing units and the preservation of 29 existing affordable homes. The funds will also assist people in maintaining housing stability and building organizational capacity in Cary nonprofits focusing on housing and community development.

Rooted in Partnerships and a People First approach, this investment will further the goals of the Cary Housing Plan and the Imagine Cary Community Plan, ensuring all Cary citizens can enjoy the high quality of life Cary has to offer.
