Clayton and Family Promise Announce Continued Partnership to Prevent and End Family Homelessness Across the U.S.

BALDWIN COUNTY, AL – October 19, 2021 — Clayton, a national builder of off-site and site-built homes, continues its partnership with Family Promise® by donating a new home to be used by Family Promise of Baldwin County. This donation is the tenth home Clayton has donated to Family Promise in the last three years.

“We are excited to donate our tenth home to Family Promise to help build a better tomorrow in the communities we serve,” said Kevin Clayton, CEO of Clayton. “By providing a home for families to use while they prepare for permanent housing, this donation helps local families get one step closer to housing stability and a place to call their own.”

The new off-site Clayton Built® home will be used as transitional housing for area families experiencing homelessness and will be placed beside the nonprofit’s day center. Transitional housing is a supportive and temporary option aimed at bridging the gap from homelessness to permanent housing by offering structure, case management, and in some cases, education and training.

"This donation is very exciting because it doubles the current impact of our transitional housing program," said Beth Biggs, Executive Director of Family Promise of Baldwin County. "We are thrilled to be able to place this home right next to our day center, offering a safe space for families and providing them with additional assistance as they work towards stability."

This donation expands the transitional housing program to two homes for Family Promise of Baldwin County. Over the last year, Family Promise of Baldwin County has served 69 families at risk of homelessness, including 152 children. This new Clayton Built® home will help several families each year.
