SEMINOLE COUNTY, Fla. – Leaders in Seminole County are announcing the extension of an affordable housing project in Sanford.
On Wednesday, a ribbon-cutting ceremony was held for Phase II of Sanford Courtyard, located at 1021 E. 2nd St.
Seminole County’s Community Services Department contributed $1.6 million toward the project, which was developed through a local nonprofit organization.
Central Florida Home for Good was created to focus on building multi-family units to provide safe, affordable housing for local workers in need.
The nonprofit was founded in 2019 by Kim Fogle, who said Phase II of the new development will continue making a big impact on the community.

“34% of the people who reside here are on the precipice of homelessness. That is the demographic that we serve,” Fogle said.
Phase I of Sanford Courtyard launched in 2020 with 10 affordable, 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartments available to families in need.
The project was funded through Seminole County’s HOME funds and the American Rescue Plan, which are federal funds received from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for the construction and/or rehabilitation of affordable housing.
Sanford Courtyard is still accepting applicants for Phase II. For more details, visit https://www.cfhomeforgood.org/
