A STORY FROM OUR AGENCY:
Hope for their future. That’s what David wants the most for his family when they move into their new Habitat Home.
David works as a machine operator, and Rachael has a job as a food processor. With four kids and another on the way, they knew their two-bedroom apartment would no longer serve their needs. When it would rain, the carpet would get wet and moldy, and there were issues with the plumbing. Rent continued to go up and became completely unaffordable for the family.
With their new home, they will have space to grow. The five children will be able to play in the backyard on beautiful days and have an area to study in the basement. All of the extra room will allow David and Rachael some quality time to spend with one another.
The family is dedicated to giving back to the community through their church and enjoys playing and watching sports together. The entire family can’t wait for their new kitchen and the memories that they will build over years of meals together as a family.
