Who We Are
Our Story
Maginificat Houses Founder, Rose Mary Badami, purchased a single house in 1968 through private donations in a then-undesirable area now known as the Second Ward. Over time, Magnificat grew to encompass 15 residential properties, mostly neighborhood homes where the homeless and ex-offenders could re-enter society through a supportive, family-style environment.
