Join Moms 4 Housing and Community Ready Corps TOMORROW for a press conference in support of Leslie Lewis, a Black elder who is working to save his family home. Mr. Lewis is now a tenant in the home he was born in after his family lost ownership of the property through a predatory foreclosure. The new owner is showing the home to prospective buyers, despite Mr. Lewis’ desire to re-purchase the house himself.
Sign and share the petition to save the Lewis family home, and come stand with Mr. Lewis this Sunday at 271 Fitzpatrick Road at 3PM for a press conference calling on the landlord to negotiate the sale of the home with its rightful owner. Moms 4 Housing and Community Ready Corps are leading this effort, and Care 4 Community Action is rallying our neighbors to come out and support because housing is a human right!
Leslie Lewis prunes a rose bush in the back yard of the family home he is fighting to save.
