CREATING A STABLE & RESILIENT
BLAINE COUNTY COMMUNITY

We envision a community where all people can maintain stability in times of crisis, and where shared resources and knowledge helps to ensure all can thrive.

OUR SERVICES

Financial assistance programs

HOUSING STABILITY

Keeping Blaine County households stable is a critical element to reducing housing insecurity and experiencing the traumatic affects of eviction. Blaine County Charitable Fund does this by providing emergency rent assistance in conjunction with financial education and goal setting. And when suddenly faced with costs of acquiring new housing, BCCF can help with move in costs.

BRIDGE THE GAP PROGRAMS

Blaine County Charitable Fund is offering two new programs to aid families in increasing their ability to increase economic mobility and gain permanent housing stability through home ownership: Down Payment Assistance and Childcare Assistance.

RAPID RELIEF

Blaine County Charitable Fund understands that there are unexpected expenses that are difficult to address when a household is already financially challenged to pay for basic monthly needs. Households can apply for assistance with expenses that are in need of immediate payment and cannot be deferred or negotiated. These may include transportation, medical, insurance, utilities, etc.
