About the Project:
At Mount Calvary Lutheran Church in Santa Cruz County, a coalition of green builders and a local shelter provider is planning a small community of LEED certified cabins built out of strawbales that will house very low-income residents coming out of homelessness.
The project is funded at the 75% level but needs to raise additional funds to break ground. Link
