About Us...


Background


In late 1997, a housing task force was formed as part of the Columbus Community Vision process. Recognizing the need for an organized effort in the affordable housing arena in Columbus, NeighborWorks® Columbus was established in 1998. NeighborWorks® Columbus, a private nonprofit community-based housing development organization, is a Georgia Corporation and was granted 501(c)(3) status by the Internal Revenue Service in November 1999.
