A neighbor on South Main Pearl Street is obviously grateful for Habitat for Humanity's restoration of a house two doors down.
The house is nearly complete and the family that will move in is in escrow on the purchase. A dedication is expected May 21.
Habitat currently has another project in progress on State Street.

Yep, Cheryl, you're right. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
What a beautiful job they
What a beautiful job they have done on this house... soon to be HOME! This is one great organization for anyone looking to donate. They can use help in the actual homes, in the Habitat Store or just monetary donations. It is great training for kids in B.O.C.E.S too, which they use .
There is a lot of misconception about the families who get these homes. They are by NO means just GIVEN to them. They actually have to have a job, spotless credit and prove that they are working to better their lives. They also have to put in quite a few hours with Habitat themselves . The homeowners have to take out a loan to pay for the house. It is not a freebie and the loan can be just as much as you or I would pay, but they are put on terms that work for them and their income. It is an amazing program that helps the community in so many ways. Cant say enough good about them.
