All of us are indebted to those who preceded us.  We drink from wells others have dug.  We sit under the shade of trees others have planted.  We share our faith from foundations we did not lay.

At the same time, we are the seeds of the future.  We dream and set things in motion.  The fruits of our decisions today will be known only by those who we will never meet.  What will your legacy be?

Homeownership with Habitat

For Habitat homeowners, a home means stability.  If you’re someone that has always had a home and family, then you, like me, probably have never fully appreciated the importance of the stability that comes with living in your own home.  Habitat helps its homeowners build stability for themselves and their families in many areas.
