Setting Euclid Residents Up For Housing Success
At Euclid Development Corporation (EDCOR), we believe that every resident deserves access to safe, affordable housing and resources to help build a better future. Since our founding in 1978, we've worked tirelessly to uplift and empower our community members through innovative programs and services.
In partnership with the City of Euclid, our organization was born out of a desire to create more equitable housing opportunities for Euclid residents. We recognize that too many of our neighbors lacked the means to make critical home repairs or achieve first-time homeownership. That’s why we set out to provide the helping hand they need to obtain safe housing and begin building generational wealth.
Today, EDCOR administers various initiatives that align with our mission of investing in our residents:
Low Interest Home Improvement Loan Program: This 3% interest loan helps income-eligible homeowners make essential upgrades like replacing faulty electrical systems, fixing structural issues, and more. Applicants must meet federal income guidelines to qualify.
Down Payment Assistance: We offer down payment support for income-qualified first-time homebuyers who may not qualify for traditional loans and programs. This aid makes the dream of homeownership attainable.
Financial Counseling & Education: We work with partners to provide customized guidance to help residents manage finances, repair credit, and prepare for major purchases like a home.
At EDCOR, we don’t just see loan applicants and program participants—we see incredible potential for our community. We bring compassion, expertise, and a relentless drive to help our residents gain access to safe, stable housing.
We invite you to learn more about EDCOR's offerings and impact in Euclid. Please email info@edcor.org or download an application to get started. With your partnership, we can continue building a Euclid that offers opportunity and equity for all who call it home.

Final Round of Neighborhood Opportunity Grants for Euclid Homeowners
by Emma Davies
The Neighborhood Opportunity Grant (NOG) has helped many Euclid homeowners make important home repairs over the years, improving curb appeal and strengthening pride in our neighborhoods. As EDCOR’s Program Manager, I’ve seen how these repairs—new roofs, porches, and fresh paint—can truly transform both homes and the people who live in them.
This year marks the final round of the Neighborhood Opportunity Grant. Homeowners can receive up to $7,500 for exterior, street-visible repairs, with a required 10% homeowner contribution. Eligible projects include windows, doors, tuckpointing, roofs, driveways, sidewalks, porches, railings, gutters, painting, and siding. Landscaping and backyard repairs are not eligible.
To qualify, homeowners must live within Euclid city limits, be current on property taxes, and either meet income guidelines or live in a qualified census tract.
Applications will be accepted online only from December 5 through December 19 at https://tinyurl.com/y5fzk9k4.
For those who need help applying, EDCOR will host an in-person session at Moore Counseling and Mediation Services (MCMS), 22639 Euclid Avenue, on Saturday, December 6 from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Computers and staff will be available to assist applicants.
I will be at the Senior Center December 10th and December 17th from 10am – 11:30 am to assist seniors with filling out the application.
The Neighborhood Opportunity Grant has made a lasting impact on our community—helping residents stay in their homes and strengthening the character of our neighborhoods. I encourage all eligible homeowners to take advantage of this final opportunity to make visible improvements that will benefit both their homes and the entire city of Euclid.
