Vision/Mission

It is our mission to educate and encourage individuals to purchase property in the Lawndale and Garfield community. Our hope is that community members will gain a sense of pride about the community they live in and work together to keep it from deteriorating. Below is a description of the programs we offer. 

Home Buying Program

Every month, AMES offer FREE workshops on topics such as purchasing a home, obtaining financing, rehabbing.
