New Web Site Launched for Down Payment Assistance Program

910

A new Web site has been launched within the Mercer Web site in order to assist faculty and staff who have an interest in participating in the Down Payment Assistance Program. Mercer, in partnership with the Knight Foundation, has expanded its grants to faculty and staff who purchase homes in the newly designated Intown Macon District. The district, which is in close proximity to the Macon campus, includes Tatnall Square Heights, Huguenin Heights and Beall’s Hill.

Thanks to the Knight Foundation, Mercer has been able to increase its matching fund from $5,000 to $10,000, for a total of $20,000, including Knight funds.

The new Web page is located at www2.mercer.edu/dpa. For more information about the Down Payment Assistance Program, contact Gina Hall at extension 2787 or hall_gm@mercer.edu.
