Target demographics: Aeon provides high-quality affordable homes to individuals and families, particularly household earning low and moderate incomes and formerly homeless adults and youth.

Direct beneficiaries per year: In 2011, more than 600 formerly homeless adults and youth found home and were linked to life changing services. Annually, more than 3,500 benefit from living at an Aeon property.

Someone who had 3 hours of volunteer time could: contribute to the quality of life of our residents by raking leaves, painting, or sharing a meal; or hosting a donation drive for residents who recently experienced homelessness.”

Geographic areas served: Aeon offers affordable housing options in the Twin Cities metro, including Minneapolis, St. Paul, Brooklyn Center, Chaska and Roseville.

Mission:

Aeon's mission is to create and sustain quality affordable homes that strengthen lives and communities. Aeon's vision is that every person has a home and is interconnected within community.

An award-winning nonprofit owner, developer and manager of quality affordable housing, Aeon's properties offer affordability to individuals working minimum wage jobs who struggle to pay for housing, food, transportation and health care.

Aeon 1) revitalizes neighborhoods by transforming unstable urban sites into thriving, affordable place to live; 2) strengthens residents' housing stability and creates home through its Resident Connections services; and 3) partners to create community assets that provide long-term sustainable solutions to the shortage of quality, affordable housing.

Results:

Each year, more than 3,500 individuals and families find home at Aeon 35 properties. Aeon currently offers more than 2,100 apartment and town homes and aims to add 200 affordable apartment homes each year.

It was nice to connect with my coworkers in a setting outside of work and get some fresh air while helping others. Then, I helped serve meals at Aeon apartment complexes.
