In 2001, Midland Fair Havens experienced full occupancy in its housing facilities and initiated a waiting list process. Referrals and requests for services have continued to escalate since that time. Recognizing the desperate need for additional housing and services, the Midland Fair Havens Board of Directors has initiated the "Building a Future for Families" Capital Campaign. The board hopes to raise $2.9 million to provide: a transitional living community that will serve up to 15 single mothers and their children, expanded services to residential and non-residential clients, and a permanent endowment fund. 

The original construction was scaled back slightly due to fund raising deadlines but we have reserved an area along the north property line to complete the entire project when the timing seems appropriate. The outpouring of gifts and donations of materials, services, time, talents, and money from individuals, churches, local companies, organizations, and Foundations has been overwhelming.

In September, 2004, Midland Fair Havens realized the first phase of its dream. Thanks to grants, foundations and the generous donations from the community, a total of $2.6 million has enabled the construction of 12 apartments, administration building, residential supervisor’s facility and storage room. Phase II will include the addition of a Children’s Development Center on campus; and to expand services to residential and non-residential single parent families through growing partnerships with community service agencies.
