San Juan Community Home Trust

Affordable housing doesn’t stop at the purchase price. At HolliWalk, solar panels help reduce monthly energy costs, making these homes more affordable not just today, but for the long run.

That’s how we create lasting impact.

What a wonderful celebration we had commemorating the 25th Anniversary of the San Juan Community Home Trust at the Roche Harbor Pavilion!

The joy, pride, and camaraderie that were present can only be explained by how much we have all shared the mission of the Home Trust over our first 25 years.

Thank you Roche Harbor, Banner Bank, David Corry Photography, Val Curtis - Treehouse Creative Digital Solutions, Grace Davis- Smiling Rose Planning and Production, Larissa Nash- Cakes by Felicitations, Hansen & Strasser Jazz Duo, and of course, Michael & Mary Bills, for the generous donation of the Native Carving.

Thank you for your generous support and for making the event spectacular, raising over $80,000 to support the Home Trust in creating forever affordable housing.

A big moment for HolliWalk ☀️ With Town Council approval officially in place, these homes are one step closer to welcoming local buyers. And today, we celebrated something just as powerful, the completion of HolliWalk’s solar project.

This effort, led by Lily Goldberg and supported by Olympia Community Solar () and Washington’s Climate Commitment Act, is a true example of what community can do.

To the 40+ island neighbors who helped make this possible, thank you.

May the sun shine on our HolliWalk neighbors as they harvest the sun for electricity and the fruits of homeownership.
