Habitat for Humanity is one of those organization that really helps maintain humanity and dignaty for those they come in contact with during the course of making a difference.
Habitat for Humanity impacts the volunteers, those that offer financial aid and the recipients of the homes themselves. This month marked 25 years for the involvement of Habitat for Humanity in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Willie Ware helped construct the first home 25 years ago. The Grand Rapids Press did an article on his involvement.
Habitat for Humanity is looking to complete it's 250th home in Kent County this year. That in itself shows the need and the impact the program has had on Kent County, Michigan. Grand Rapids, Michigan has had it's share of home built as well.
We can n
ot under-estimate the value of a few dollars as a contribution to a program like this. Many of the contributors offer discounts, and free supplies to help reduce the cost so more homes can be constructed. This type of program really is a humanitarian gift.
Families get a second chance to start over...and in some cases their first start. The impact on the family unit can not be expressed in words...but the emotions sure poor out when the families are handed the keys!

We have quite a few homes down in Slidell Louisiana especially since the hurricane three years ago. Your blog before this spoke of a family member trying to get a house cheap from a relative. I ran into one of these incidents just today. I will let you know.
