Found our dream home. Help with down payment.

My name is Chris Caswell, a father of four trying to build a real future for my family. After years of struggling in Massachusetts—bouncing between unstable housing and facing system after system that failed us—we finally found a chance to start over in Greenville, Pennsylvania. We were accepted into the MakeMyMove relocation program and pre-approved through NACA to buy our first home.

I’m not asking for a handout—I’ve done the legwork. I’ve uploaded every document, stayed on every call, and followed every step. What I need now is help closing the gap. We found a perfect home. But between deposits, closing costs, and the expenses of moving four kids across state lines, the final stretch is just out of reach without support.

My oldest son is in high school. He deserves a chance to finish school in a place that’s safe. My youngest is just starting out—she deserves stability from day one. And Katlyn, my partner in all this, deserves a home where we can breathe, not just survive.

Be specific about what your funds will be used for

Funds raised will go directly to:

• Closing costs and escrow fees to secure the home

• First month’s utilities and basic furniture for the kids

• Moving truck and transport from Lynn, MA to Greenville, PA

• Emergency buffer while we transition benefits and income

Every dollar helps us take this final step toward homeownership, stability, and a real future for our family. Thank you for believing in us.
