Interfaith Churches Convince Banks to Give $30 Million to Help Foreclosed Families
An interfaith group in Virginia has shown what a grassroots group can do when working together for positive change -- in this case, help for some of the 20,000 families who lost homes in the 2008 foreclosure crisis. VOICE (Virginians Organized For Interfaith Community Engagement) managed to get pledges of $30 million from Bank of America, General Electric and the Virginia Housing Development Authority to help such families in Manassas and Prince William County.
