We recently held our first remote IHT homeownership lottery via a video conference. Six families were selected to purchase new homes on Greenwood Ave in Tisbury. It was an incredibly joyful moment in these challenging times. The smiles, cheers and excitement were just as touching as if we were all in the room together!

Here at IHT we’re using every tool we have to keep ourselves and our community safe and healthy as we all cope with the impacts of COVID-19. We’re working remotely and collaborating with our staff, board and partners via the technology we have in place.

Our plan is to continue our work that has now become even more urgent. We’re doing everything we can to move these families into their new homes over the next several months, and we remain committed to our mission to end housing insecurity here on the Island.

We’ll keep you up to date on our progress and we’ll be sure to share any good news we have.

We’re all in this together and we thank you for your tremendous support.
