Columbia, MO – December 1, 2014: The Columbia Housing Authority announced today that it has received funding from the Missouri Foundation for Health (MFH) and Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB) to help create Patriot Place – Apartments for Veterans.
Each agency awarded $500,000 separately to the project for a total funding contribution of $1,000,000. These two awards bring the housing authority within 69 % of its goal of $4.5 million.
