About Me

As a firm believer and supporter of Habitat for Humanity and its mission, I was thrilled when selected as part of the 2018 Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project team in Indiana.

Habitat serves to bring light to the basic human right of affordable and safe housing. Everyone deserves to have a decent place to live. It is hard to strive for more, for children to learn, to follow dreams, and to find value within oneself when they are concerned about the roof over their head. I love how Habitat brings communities, home owners, and volunteers together to work towards the goal of building not a house, but a home.

“Habitat gives us an opportunity which is very difficult to find: to reach out and work side by side with those who never have had a decent home—but work with them on a completely equal basis. It’s not a big-shot, little-shot relationship. It’s a sense of equality.”—former U.S. President Jimmy Carter

As a HFHI ReStore staff member, I get to see the difference our housing programs and ReStore mission make to local families in Metro Atlanta and around the world. I am looking forward to getting my hands dirty, swinging a hammer, and sharing the love of Christ with those in South Bend.

We have a saying at ReStore that even a donated doorknob can make a difference, and even your small monetary donation can too. Help us make a lasting difference and betterment in South Bend, Indiana! 

More Info

For 35 years, Habitat for Humanity’s Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project has shone a spotlight on the need for decent, affordable housing in the U.S. and around the world. The 2018 Carter Work Project continues the tradition and will be hosted by Habitat for Humanity of St. Joseph County in Indiana.

As part of the 2018 Carter Work Project, homeowners will work alongside President and Mrs. Carter and hundreds of other volunteers to build or improve more than 30 homes in Mishawaka and South Bend. The need for affordable housing is at an all-time high. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 16.6 percent of people living in St. Joseph County and 27 percent of those living in South Bend, Indiana, live in poverty. For families struggling to secure a decent place to live, an affordable house can provide the strength, stability and independence they need to create a better life for themselves.

Inspiring millions, President and Mrs. Carter have worked alongside 101,276 volunteers in 14 countries to build, renovate and repair 4,290 homes.

Your support can help make homeownership a reality for in need of decent shelter. 

About Habitat for Humanity International 

Driven by the vision that everyone needs a decent place to live, Habitat for Humanity began in 1976 as a grassroots effort on a community farm in southern Georgia. The housing organization has since grown to become a leading global nonprofit working in more than 1,300 communities throughout the U.S. and in more than 70 countries. Families and individuals in need of a hand up partner with Habitat for Humanity to build or improve a place they can call home. Habitat homeowners help build their own homes alongside volunteers and pay an affordable mortgage. Through financial support, volunteering or adding a voice to support affordable housing, everyone can help families achieve the strength, stability and self-reliance they need to build better lives for themselves. Through shelter, we empower. To learn more, visit habitat.org.
