Inglis Housing Corporation

Inglis was founded in 1877. It all started with a young girls dream and a $1 gold coin.  Annie Inglis who contracted scarlet fever as a young child was left disabled.  Annie expressed a dream to her mother that one day there would be a home in Philadelphia to care for those of low income with disabilities. Annie's $1 gold coin would be used to begin fundraising to help realize Annie's dream for a unique home in Philadelphia. Today Inglis House is home to over 200 residents.  Inglis House is just one part of Inglis.  Annie's dream has grown into a system of services and products designed to maximize the independence of adults with physical disabilities for those living at Inglis House as well as those living independently in community settings.

Inglis mission; Enable people with disabilities- and those who care for them- to achieve their goals and live life to the fullest. Inglis is the largest private provider of affordable, accessible housing in the Greater Philadelphia region with more than 400 affordable units, nearly half fully accessible for people with disabilities. With nearly 50 years of experience developing affordable, wheelchair-accessible housing throughout the greater Philadelphia region, Inglis Housing Corporation is committed to meeting the needs of people with physical disabilities.
