Charlotte County Habitat for Humanity raises 500th Home!
Charlotte County Habitat was established in 1987 and for the last 13 years has built on average 30 homes per year. Today, marks a huge milestone in the affiliate's history. Partnering with volunteers from TEAM Punta Gorda, Charlotte County Habitat raised the walls on their 500th home. TEAM and Habitat have collaborated on many projects over the years and TEAM's CEO, Nancy Johnson, said, "If organizations had best friends, TEAM Punta Gorda and Charlotte County Habitat would be best friends for sure!" Charlotte County Habitat for Humanity's CEO, Mike Mansfield, agreed whole heartedly. He is thankful for the partnership the two organizations share. Mike said, "Not many Habitat affiliates get to celebrate the milestone of building 500 homes. We are truly blessed by the support of our community. We would not be able to help as many families as we do if we didn't have the support of such wonderful volunteers and donors."
Future homeowner, Fabiola, was on site to work alongside TEAM Punta Gorda volunteers. She thanked Habitat and TEAM Punta Gorda for giving her an opportunity. She said, "I was so excited last night that I couldn't even sleep." Charlotte County Habitat for Humanity continues to work through these challenging times and remains steadfast in providing needy families with the opportunity to achieve the "American Dream" of homeownership.
