ICE's Lasting Impact in Albuquerque

"On 27 acres in the heart of Albuquerque, Sawmill Community Land Trust is revitalizing a neighborhood to provide affordable access to land, housing and jobs for community residents. From our first steps in 1997, ICE has been a valued partner, first offering technical assistance as we established the land trust and then providing a loan to support our growth and continued development. ICE still stands with us today as we prepare to break ground on Sawmill Senior Housing, a 46-unit low income senior rental community, the next step toward realizing the Arbolera de Vida (Orchard of Life) vision."
