April is Volunteer Appreciation Month. We want to shout out to every single volunteer who has helped Hanover and King William Habitat for Humanity. We have amazing volunteers that dedicate countless hours to our construction program, recycling, in the office and the ReStore. As an organization founded on volunteerism, our volunteers are vital to our success. Thank you! | |

You would never know by Ms. Lewis' joyful, positive attitude that her living arrangements had gotten so bad. As she puts it, she was "desperate" for help. As a person who has "love, joy, and peace" thanks to her relationship with God, she knew there was a blessing coming. Her deck was dangerous and she could have fallen through at any time. She also had bad gutters with rotten wood which caused damage to the interior walls. She is extremely thankful for Habitat's critical repair program. She just wishes she had known about the program earlier, so things wouldn't have gotten so bad. Now the home she has known for over 30 years will be safer. Thank you Habitat supporters for helping homeowners like Ms. Lewis! | |

Thanks to a grant, we have received funds for a replacement ReStore truck because our existing trucks are extremely old and in disrepair. Unfortunately, there are no trucks in inventory at any area car dealership. After months of searching, we are now asking the community if they have any leads for a 16 foot box truck, new or used. The truck must be in good working order, with low mileage and we would prefer one with a liftgate. If you have any leads, please contact us!
