Building Foundations for Generational Wealth: Project 843

In the heart of the Austin community, a transformative vision is coming to life—a vision that combines hope, opportunity, and empowerment. At Circle Urban Ministries, we’re proud to introduce Project 843, a groundbreaking initiative to create a pathway for families to achieve generational wealth through homeownership.

Why Project 843 Matters

For decades, the Austin community has grappled with systemic inequities that have made stability and prosperity feel out of reach for many families. Among these challenges, access to affordable housing and homeownership remains one of the most pressing. Project 843 is our response to this need, aimed at building not just homes but the foundation for long-term financial security and stability for families in our community.

This initiative focuses on constructing high-quality, affordable single-family homes for hardworking families. More than just a place to live, these homes will be sold at a discounted price, allowing families to build equity and begin the journey toward financial freedom.

Project 843 is about giving families the opportunity to thrive,” says James Borishade, CEO of Circle Urban Ministries. “This isn’t just about a house; it’s about creating access to ownership—giving families the chance to build wealth, break cycles of poverty, and change their future.”

The Bigger Vision

At Circle, we believe that stable, safe, and affordable housing is more than a basic need—it’s a stepping stone to opportunities that transform lives. Project 843 isn’t just about building a house; it’s about building a brighter future. Homeownership has been proven to create generational wealth, improve educational outcomes for children, and foster a stronger sense of community.

But this project is about more than financial stability; it’s about changing the narrative. For families who have been historically locked out of opportunities, Project 843 is an invitation to participate in the American dream, redefining what’s possible for themselves and future generations.

Project 843 is a bold initiative, and we can’t do it alone. We’re calling on our community of supporters, donors, and advocates to join us in making this vision a reality.

A Legacy of Change

At its core, Project 843 is about more than housing; it’s about hope. It’s about providing families with the tools to break cycles of poverty and dependency, to dream boldly, and to invest in their own future.

We’re not just building homes—we’re building opportunities, stability, and a legacy of empowerment for families in Austin. Together, we can transform lives and communities, one home at a time.
