Keys to Greater

According to the National Institute to End Homelessness, over 7,600 Nevadans experience homelessness on any given day. Of these, nearly 20% are children and teens. Our Keys to Greater program donates a portion of the revenue from every mortgage or refinance to community organizations that address homelessness.

Nevada Partnership for Homeless Youth

No young person should have to live on the streets.

Since 2001, NPHY’s best practice programs have helped thousands of homeless youth graduate from high school, enroll in college, embark on careers, find their passions, build supportive social networks, transition to safe and stable housing, and realize brighter futures.

“We are so grateful to have been chosen to be a partner in Greater Nevada Mortgage’s Keys to Greater initiatives. These types of campaigns not only help create flexible funding streams for our most needed supplies, but they help raise awareness about the NPHY and the issue of youth homelessness, which ultimately leads to more businesses and community members getting involved. That kind of partnership is invaluable and we are truly thrilled to be a part of this!” – Arash Ghafoori, CEO of Nevada Partnership for Homeless Youth.
