A Glimpse of What You Made Possible
Because of the rushed and unexpected nature of this year’s build, our volunteers didn’t have the opportunity to work alongside the homeowner as we usually do. While that was disappointing, we didn’t want the moment to pass without sharing her story—and the impact your support still made.
“Genesis is a forklift operator at FedEx Freight who originally hails from New York City. Driven by her faith and deep desire to positively influence others, she brings that same heart to her workplace by mentoring new colleagues. Outside of work, she loves spending time outdoors with her children, ages 15 and 11, and listening to podcasts focused on personal growth.
For Genesis, homeownership is about creating stability and a permanent foundation for her children. Until now, Genesis and her kids shared one bedroom in a small home rented by her sister, where eight family members lived together. This new home will give both families the space they need to thrive.
When Genesis learned she was approved for a Habitat home, she dropped to her knees in grateful prayer. She is profoundly thankful to the sponsors, donors, and volunteers who made this blessing possible – one that will allow her family to settle in, grow, and build lasting memories for years to come.”
