Service Spotlight

This month we launched a new bi-monthly segment, " Meet our Volunteers ." We hope this spotlight will help you get to know some of the interesting and dedicated people who join us every week. These individuals are, indeed, an essential part of our organization. Please, if you see Al, be sure to thank him!
Welcome Home!
We love move-in day! In July, the beautiful Tshimbalanga family moved into their Franklin Street, Lawrence home. 

We were lucky to celebrate with Henri, Annie, and Marie (pictured above) when they received the keys to their new Habitat home. It was indeed such a joyous occasion!
Esther Castillo (pictured above) and her 2-kids, also moved into their Habitat home during July.

We hope you will all join us for the home dedication ceremony, which we will announce soon. Please watch this space!
Window Installation Training in Andover
On July 10, we hosted an hour-long training session at the Lupine Road building site on window installation. Bruce Letwin conducted the training. All regular Habitat volunteers were invited to this hands-on training and have since been able to work on actual window installation on the Lupine home. 

This is an excellent example of just one of the benefits of volunteering with us. Don't miss out, sign up as a volunteer today, and receive the inside scoop on when the next training will be.
Meet a Future Habitat Family

Cost of Home Advocacy Campaign
Launching in August
On August 5, 2019, we will be joining Habitat organizations around the country in a new national advocacy campaign aimed at improving home affordability across the U.S. over the next five years. When you realize that one-in-seven of our neighbors, right here in the Merrimack Valley pay more than half their income on housing. It is more evident than ever that we need to speak up now!
