Corporate Community Investments

Make a Community Month                       

Freddie Mac's investments in the community complement Freddie Mac's mission to support the housing market. The contributions we make to nonprofit organizations help families find affordable homes and stay in their homes, and strengthen communities. We concentrate our community investments in Freddie Mac's backyard, the National Capital Region.

Our investments in organizations like D.C. Habitat for Humanity and Rebuilding Together help build new homes and better lives for children and their families. We partner with organizations like the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments to prevent foreclosures and improve the quality of life in our region.

Our contributions also help provide counseling to homeowners in distress, financial literacy programs for young people and adults, shelter for homeless individuals and families, as well as a wealth of other services to stabilize our communities.

Our army of employee volunteers extends the value of our funding and brings benefits to the community.

Visit the Corporate Citizenship page to learn more about our corporate investments, as well as the work of the Freddie Mac Foundation.

Freddie Mac funded the DAF by making a one-time irrevocable gift to the Community Foundation in 2003.

These investments support nonprofits that create and preserve affordable housing, help prevent foreclosures, and strengthen communities.
