About us

Square One was founded in response to the growing challenges of housing affordability—rising costs, rental shortages, and limited homeownership opportunities—especially for low-income families.


We believe that when one civic challenge arises, it affects us all. Square One exists to address these interconnected issues by creating accessible pathways to affordable homeownership and community-centered living for everyday working Americans.


Our initiatives benefit veterans, single-parent households, traditional families, and individuals alike. Homeownership becomes not only a foundation for personal wealth-building but also a driver of improved health, civic engagement, and community cohesion. 


Homeowners are more likely to invest in their neighborhoods, participate in local activities, and contribute to safer, more vibrant communities. By promoting stable homeownership opportunities, Square One helps attract businesses, enhance services, and build resilient neighborhoods.

Children in stable home environments consistently perform better in school. Square One supports educational success by promoting homeownership and financial stability among parents.

In Memphis–Shelby County, where schools face low proficiency rates, Square One’s programs equip families with financial tools to reduce dependence on public assistance and improve educational outcomes—laying a foundation for generational success.

Through our partnership with the Transitional Reentry Adult Program (TRAP), we also support justice-impacted individuals by offering construction apprenticeships—tuition-free, skill-building opportunities that lead to long-term employment and increased earning potential. This initiative strengthens reintegration, employment, and community reinvestment.
