In August 2005, through Oasis' in-kind rent subsidy program, Covenant Christian Academy was able to lease 40,000 square feet of space at 83 Pine Street in West Peabody on a "free rent" basis. Formed in 1991 by a group of parents, CCA's mission is to build students' academic, spiritual, and social foundations while challenging them to realize their God-given potential.

to a prime downtown Boston location in order to
better serve the University students in the Boston

Vision New England Headquarters
1 Constitution Lane
Danvers, Massachusetts |
 |

Vision New England is a 120-year-old Boston-based 501c(3) organization which had recently undergone a major ministry makeover, resulting in a vision of "the whole church taking the whole gospel to the whole New England region". During the reorganization process, VNE made the decision to relocate its headquarters. After almost two years of planning, through the Oasis Group's in-kind "free-rent" program subsidy, VNE was able to lease 6,000 square feet of prime office space at the Liberty Tree Office Park in Danvers, MA, owned by East West Enterprises.

The Food Project
Lynn, Massachusetts |
 |
| |
Based
on the results of a 2006 private criteria-based
study performed by Oasis Development Enterprises,
the Food Project in Lynn was chosen to be a recipient
of in-cash donations and in-kind support. The Food
Project is a Boston-based nonprofit whose mission
is to create a thoughtful and productive community
of youth and adults from diverse backgrounds who
work together to build a sustainable food system.
The boys and girls involved in The Food Project
come to understand the impact of hard manual labor
while learning commerce, economics and the concept
of value. Participants in the programs run by the
Food Project plant, harvest and sell half their
fresh produce in local farmers markets and donate
the other half local soup kitchens and food pantries.
Their goal is to provide healthy food that is affordable
for anyone in the community.
