Housing Assistance for Veterans

We often hear that elderly people are losing their homes, because they are no longer working and cannot afford it.

Residential Property Assistance: A Lifeline for Elderly Homeowners

Many elderly homeowners face a difficult choice: keep their home and struggle with unpaid real estate taxes or give it up to qualify for Medicaid—potentially leaving a surviving spouse without a place to live. Home Safe Home Inc. offers a compassionate solution to this problem.

1. Real Estate Donation-for-Housing Program

  • The homeowner donates their property to Home Safe Home Inc., receiving a tax deduction while eliminating unpaid property taxes.

  • This allows them to qualify for Medicaid, ensuring they receive the care they need.

  • The surviving spouse receives a lifetime lease or access to affordable housing provided by the nonprofit.

2. Medicaid-Compatible Housing Assistance

  • Instead of owning a home, which may disqualify them from Medicaid, elderly individuals (or their spouses) can live in a property managed by Home Safe Home Inc.

  • This ensures access to Medicaid-covered services while providing stable housing, preventing homelessness or financial strain on family members.

3. Transitional Housing for Surviving Spouses

  • If an elderly homeowner enters a nursing facility, the surviving spouse can have the option to rent their former home at a reduced rate under Home Safe Home Inc.'s program.

  • Alternatively, they can be relocated to a low-cost housing option within the nonprofit’s property portfolio.

This program provides a lifeline for thousands of elderly couples, eliminating the impossible choice between keeping their home and receiving essential care.

Maximize Your Financial Relief with Our Home Donation Program

1. Receive a Tax Deduction Equal to Your Home’s Value

Donating your home through our program allows you to receive a tax deduction equivalent to its full market value. This is a significant financial advantage for individuals on fixed incomes (such as Social Security, pensions, or rental income) who struggle with rising taxes. By leveraging this deduction, you can reduce or even eliminate income tax liabilities, making it easier to manage your finances and maintain financial stability.

2. Eliminate Property Tax Burdens—Past & Present

Our program covers all outstanding back taxes and future property taxes, ensuring that you no longer have to worry about increasing property tax bills. This allows you to remain in your home without the stress of accumulating tax debt, giving you peace of mind and long-term security.

By participating in this program, you not only gain financial relief but also contribute to a meaningful cause—helping others find stability and security in their lives.

Secure Your Home & Reduce Financial Burdens

A Long-Term Solution to Rising Property Taxes

In areas where property taxes continue to rise, our program provides much-needed financial relief, ensuring homeowners are not forced out due to excessive tax burdens.

3. Permanent Lease with a Reduced Fee

Once tax relief and deductions are applied, clients receive a permanent lease on their property at a significantly reduced rate. This guarantees they can remain in their home without the fear of eviction due to financial hardship, providing long-term stability and peace of mind.

Ensuring Stability for Couples in Need of Care

With our program, individuals in need of care can receive home assistance, transition to assisted living, or move to a care home—without requiring their spouse to leave their marital home.

This ensures that both partners can maintain their stability, dignity, and quality of life, without the additional stress of losing their home during a challenging time.

SECOND PROGRAM WE ARE PLANING :  ALTZHEIMERS CARE IN A CITY NEAR YOU!

Revolutionizing Alzheimer’s Care with the Proven Dementia Village Concept

We are transforming the world of dementia care by implementing the proven Alzheimer’s Village model, first pioneered in Holland.

How Dementia Villages Work

Unlike traditional care settings where individuals sit idly in wheelchairs, waiting for time to pass, our approach creates a safe, interactive world around them.

Residents live in a secure, engaging environment designed to enhance their quality of life, encourage independence, and provide a sense of normalcy.

They deserve dignity, purpose, and a fulfilling daily experience—and we are committed to making that happen.

Our Calling & Future Training School for Caregivers

Our training school for employees and volunteers is a revolutionary shift from traditional caregiving programs—a true day and night difference.

What Sets Us Apart?

Unlike conventional schools that see individuals with Alzheimer's as passive patients to be managed, we recognize them as functioning, feeling individuals who deserve dignity, respect, and engagement.

Our approach is rooted in compassion, patience, and a belief in human potential—ensuring that every person, regardless of their diagnosis, maintains a meaningful role in the world. We train caregivers to provide care that goes beyond routine management, fostering connection, purpose, and quality of life for those we serve.

DONATION OF ART CARS, BOATS PLANES, BUSES AND OTHER ITEMS OF VALUE

Maximize Your Tax Deduction with Expert Appraisal Services

When donating valuable items, the method of appraisal depends on the type of asset. In many cases, a local appraiser can assess the fair market value, ensuring you receive the highest possible tax deduction. However, for specialized assets such as artwork, an IRS-certified appraisal may be required.

The advantage? In most instances, your tax deduction will exceed what you would receive from selling the item outright. This makes donation a financially smart alternative, allowing you to maximize benefits while supporting a meaningful cause.

Charitable Remainder Trust: A Smart Way to Give & Receive

A Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT) allows you to donate assets to a charitable organization while still receiving income from the trust during your lifetime. Upon your passing, the remaining assets are transferred to the designated charity.

Key Benefits:

Receive Ongoing Income – Continue earning interest and returns on your donated assets. ✔ Maximize Tax Benefits – Enjoy potential income tax deductions and estate tax reductions. ✔ Support a Meaningful Cause – Secure a lasting impact for the charity of your choice.

A CRT works not only for financial assets but also for real estate, allowing you to leverage property donations while maintaining a steady income.
