About Eden Housing
Eden Housing Inc channels most of its giving into affordable housing activities, with several large grants supporting Eden-linked project entities and operating organizations in Hayward. The largest recent award in the data was $12,293,629 to Vallejo Psh Lp for affordable housing activities, followed by $5,114,202 to Eden South Bay Inc and $3,822,105 to New Del Nido Lp for the same purpose. That pattern shows a funder working through project-specific affiliates as well as housing management and resident services entities. The grant list also includes support for housing infrastructure beyond a single development. Eden Housing Management Inc received multiple seven-figure grants across 2023 to 2025, while Eden Housing Resident Services Inc received grants of $1,250,000, $1,150,000, and $800,000 in different years. Those awards sit alongside smaller grants to policy, education, and housing-sector organizations, indicating a mix of development support, operational backing, and field-building activity. Eden Housing Inc also operates a scholarship program that has awarded money to students since 1993.
