"My son, Isaiah who is 19 months old and I currently live with family where living space is extremely light. We are very limited to the space we have. My room is used as a bedroom, toy room, living room and a dining room. As my son gets older I notice the space getting smaller and smaller. I knew that I would need to find a place to settle down with more living space and a place that we could call home. I wanted a place for my son to be able to grow and explore. I didn't want him to always have that feeling of being limited to where he could. go.
I hear about Habitat for Humanity from one of my co-workers. I was extremely excited and found out when the next information seminar was. At the seminar I met some of the people from Habitat who were willing to help and support me through my journey.
I am very thankful to be a part of the Habitat family. They haven given me so much hope far a better future. I look forward to working with them for many more years to come as they are now part of my family."
