How to Invest in Your Community

It’s the season for thanksgiving and Eastbrook Homes couldn’t be more excited to give back and invest in our communities. From small towns to big cities, West Michigan offers a plethora of opportunities to show appreciation for the people, places, and resources we’re lucky to be surrounded with each and every day. Eastbrook Homes is proud to partner with an organization that helps provide families with safe, warm housing:  Family Promise of Grand Rapids.

At Eastbrook Homes, we don’t just build houses…we build communities. 

The families we serve aren’t only looking for well-built, comfortable dwellings to retreat to every day, they’re looking for camaraderie, friendship, and fellowship with those around them. Communities form the backbone of daily interactions, from the friendly postal worker we greet every day, to the neighbor who watches our pets while we vacation. Eastbrook understands the intricate needs that exist outside a home’s four walls and we seek to build positive, mutually-beneficial relationships within our client base by investing time, attention, and capital into the communities we serve. 

We believe every family deserves a stable, welcoming place to call home and that’s why our partnership with Family Promise of Grand Rapids aligns perfectly with our mission and area of expertise. Not only are we able to continue building homes of the highest quality that set the value standard for the industry, but through our partnership, we’re able to help expand Family Promise of Grand Rapid’s affordable housing program. This means fewer families on the streets and more impact felt through the West Michigan area.
