Clients, and Property Owners

    Over the years Neighborhood Enterprises has received support from
    many in local churches and the community at large.  Let  these comments
    from our support partners speak for themselves.

    ...In these times of uncertainty and change, NE maintains its continuity
    of compassionate housing management.  This caring witness surely has
    been and continues to be an asset in midtown St. Louis.

    Marie and I have participated in NE's ministry through gifts and loans
    since 1988.  We know our loans help to produce "sanctuaries in the
    ordinary" for ordinary folks.
                                               Ed Schroeder, Lutheran theologian and pastor
                                           

    ...the NE/SITO use of a selective rehab system produces the largest amount of
    affordable, rental housing per dollar invested.  This fact plus a good yield on our
    investment encouraged us to invest our charitable housing dollars...

    I have loaned money over the years to Neighborhood Enterprises so that
    I could be a partner with NE in providing decent and dignified
    housing for lower income people.

    I have known Jim Roos and NE for over 20 years.  I admire Mr. Roos's commitment to
    providing low-income housing as his personal calling...

    Jim Roos has managed my rental properties in St. Louis for
    nearly 30 years.  I have been more than satisfied and I never
    fret about the buildings.

    I have owned property in the Gate District since around 1985 and I
    have used NE as my property manager all the while.  NE has a group
    of employees who are committed, dedicated, and trustworthy.    Jim
    Roos, the president, has a ministry vision that is morally sound and
    uplifting for the neighborhood.
