Charities Housing is a non-profit affordable housing development and property management organization headquartered in San Jose, California. Founded in 1993, the enterprise has completed 33 years of corporate operations dedicated to mitigating the regional housing crisis through the creation of sustainable, high-quality residential communities across Santa Clara County and the Silicon Valley. The organization operates via a vertically integrated non-profit model, overseeing every phase of the real estate lifecycle from initial site acquisition and complex public-private financing structuring to architectural planning, construction oversight, and long-term property management. Charities Housing specializes in two primary asset categories: traditional affordable multi-family housing for working families and service-enriched supportive housing. By integrating onsite social services—such as healthcare coordination, financial literacy training, and independent living assistance—the firm provides long-term stability for extremely low-income individuals, seniors, and special-needs populations. The enterprise maintains a robust operational footprint encompassing more than 1,200 affordable apartment homes in its active portfolio, alongside a growing development pipeline of over 2,000 residential units in various stages of planning and construction. Its completed portfolio features a diverse mix of urban infill apartments, senior living facilities, and permanent supportive communities designed to foster neighborhood stabilization and upward economic mobility throughout Northern California.
