Letter from the President and CEO Our community has been transformed through the historic growth that has been made more challenging by the lingering impact of building material shortages, governance approval delays, and a reduction in the supply of affordable housing. The graph (right) shows the cost increases in home construction from the period of 2010 through 2025 (projected) for Habitat for Humanity of Greater Nashville.
$300,000 $250,000 $200,000 $150,000 $100,000 $50,000 0
Our ministry is facing issues including land availability, cost of homes, and affordability for homeowners, that in many cases are beyond our control. However, we are constantly and creatively working to identify ways to overcome these challenges to continue the impact of Habitat on the communities we serve. To operate within this environment, while we are deeply rooted in our mission to provide homeownership opportunities, we are taking on new initiatives, such as: • Acquiring land to hold for future development. • Adding and expanding our ReStores, with Dickson expanding their floor space and the addition of the Wilson ReStore in 2024. • Building partnerships in the community for collaborations and alliances with the objective for our ministry to be a leader in addressing quality of life and affordable housing issues which you will read about in this Annual Report. The need to fund solutions to the affordable housing challenges in the communities we serve has never been greater. And I fully believe Habitat for Humanity is perfectly positioned to be a catalyst and a leader in finding those solutions! Through it all, we remain committed to our goals of: 1. Providing homeownership opportunities, believing in the life changing possibilities that come through the equity building and stability created by owning a home. 2. Ensuring our homeowners are set up for success that is sustainable through the training and sweat equity they invest through the Habitat program. 3. Engaging sponsors and volunteers, bringing people together, so that they can experience the impact their involvement has on both the homeowner, as well as their community. 4. Building partnerships to expand our impact, working with surrounding counties, other local non-profits, foundations, and governmental agencies to multiply our efforts by finding ways to collaborate. 5.
Working hard to be good stewards of those supporting this ministry, focusing on financial accountability, compliance, and fulfillment, along with creatively finding alternative sources of revenue through social enterprise and asset management. I thank you all for your dedication and commitment to the work of Habitat for Humanity. The need for our mission is more vital than ever, not only to those we serve, but in bringing people together to build homes, communities and hope.

Grateful & Gracious Gail Horton HABITAT HOMEOWNER
"I am so grateful. My heart is so thankful. I will never stop thanking Habitat for Humanity,” says Gail Horton, a Habitat homeowner since 2002. Through discipline and with her everpresent smile, Gail paid off her Habitat mortgage early in 2022. “I have a story to tell about the difference that Habitat has made in my life,” she adds. Gail has worked for Vanderbilt Medical Center for 23 years and at age 58 she reached a pinnacle for home buyers by paying off her mortgage. The day she paid off her Habitat home started the day she bought it. “When I first purchased my home, some of us got overpayment refunds. One went shopping; one put it in the credit union; I put it in my mortgage and I have been paying a little extra every month,” she explains.
Gail recalls standing on her porch and thinking her greatest joy was in giving her son, Darius, who was 5 at the time, a better place to live. “Before, where we lived was not the best place,” she recalls. “It wasn’t a good place to raise a little kid. His outcome would have been different without a home. He graduated from MTSU debt free and is currently working as a journalist. He has spoken often about how Habitat has made such a difference in his life. He said he wouldn’t be the man he is today if I hadn’t gotten him out of that old neighborhood. “I am forever truly grateful. All I want to do is tell somebody else. Habitat has been life changing for me.”
Gail remembers the early days of the Habitat homeownership program and how much confidence the program created for her to succeed at homeownership. “I did something I never thought I could do. I not only worked on my home, but all the other Habitat homes being built. I not only bought a home, but I also got a neighborhood of wonderful friends.”

Habitat for Humanity was founded on the principal it continues to uphold today, to envision a world where everyone has a decent place to live. Habitat for Humanity of Greater Nashville has taken that one step further from decent place to live to purchasing a quality affordable home. Built by putting God’s love into action from our staff, volunteer corps, sponsors, and Habitat homeowners, evidenced in the 14 consecutive awards from the Envi-

ronmental Protection Agency for Excellence in Affordable Housing. We believe in solid foundations. Our mission is to build walls and to remove barriers, innovating changes and creating transformative experiences, as we stay rooted in our core principle to build homes, communities and hope. On the horizon is to expand the mission forward into new community collaborations, affordable
housing alliances, expanding our funding support through increased ReStore space, and to build bridges of understanding among diverse groups across the country with
Linda and Millard Fuller, founders of Habitat for Humanity.

other nonprofits. Habitat of Greater Nashville has continued to evolve from our inception in 1985 to further the mission in a post pandemic world. For those who don’t know our history, our roots are not only deep, but also a great story. Habitat for Humanity founder Millard Fuller was a selfmade millionaire at age 29. Business was great but it took a toll on his health and his marriage to Linda. Soul searching led the Fullers to take a drastic step: they decided to sell their possessions, give the money to the poor, and joined Clarence Jordan’s community at Koinonia Farm in Georgia. The newly formed group built modest houses on a no-profit, no-interest basis. Homeowner families were expected to invest their own labor into the building of their homes
and the homes of other families. This reduced the cost, increased the pride of ownership and fostered the development of positive relationships. Money for building was placed into a revolving fund, enabling the building of even more homes. The Fullers moved to Africa to test their new housing model and upon returning to the U.S., founded Habitat for Humanity in 1976. Former President Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter’s commitment to social justice and basic human rights led them to Habitat for Humanity in 1984. “Habitat has successfully removed the stigma of charity by substituting it with a sense of partnership,” Jimmy famously said. That movement came full circle in Nashville as the Carters held their last Carter Work Project here in 2019, building 21 homes at Park Preserve and supporting a total of 58 families.

As we look back, we are proud of our roots — in the faithful, the generous, and the hard-working. We hear from our Habitat homeowners, now over 1,000 of them, what the stability of a home has meant to their lives, and we are sharing a few of those stories in this year’s annual report. The 2023 Annual Report is a look back at the footnotes and accomplishments of our 38 years history. Our accomplishments are made possible by your generous support spread across five counties, building and providing opportunities for more people to stabilize their lives while building equity toward their futures through homeownership. All this while moving the mission forward as we face new challenges obtaining affordable land and increased building costs, all in a vastly changing world.
The 2019 Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project was held at our Park Preserve neighborhood in North Nashville.

In 2001, Habitat advertised it was looking for “at least 15,000 sq. ft., a loading dock, adequate parking, lighting, heating and air” to establish a new concept called the HomeStore (now the ReStore). It would be 2004 before the first Nashville ReStore would open on 8th Avenue in Nashville. The second location opened in 2005. The Nashville ReStore locations consolidated when the agency bought the old K-mart building on the corner of Nolensville Road and Harding Place in 2016, offering 35,000 sq. ft. of floor space. Habitat of Greater Nashville operates a ReStore in Dickson County with the Wilson County store slated to open spring of 2024. The Habitat ReStores offered a unique shopping experience to more than 130,434 shoppers in fiscal year 2023, generating over $2.7 million in revenue. Donations to the ReStores are vital to the support of Habitat's community building mission. For more information on how to donate, scan the QR code.

Leslie Cousin HABITAT HOMEOWNER
A picture of Habitat homeowner Leslie Cousin proudly showing off his electric bill hangs in Habitat for Humanity of Greater Nashville’s Homeowner Academy. After he purchased his home in 2011, Leslie would hold regularly neighborhood meetings to see whose electric bill was the lowest. “My electric bill is still low,” he smiles today. “Very seldom do I get a bill over $100. My Habitat home is well insulated and well built. I am older now,” he laughs “and a warm house is important.” Leslie says his daughter pays $1,600 in rent, a figure that would be hard for him to pay now that he is partly retired. Twelve years ago when he purchased his Habitat home, rent was more affordable. Now, since rents have doubled in price in the last 10 years, Leslie is even more grateful for his Habitat home. “If I didn’t have my Habitat home, I couldn’t afford to live in Nashville,” Leslie reflects. “I bought my home at the right time.” Leslie graduated from Tennessee State University earning a business management degree and got married. Life was good. In 1993, his wife was diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer and she passed in 1999. “I was left with a mountain of medical bills. I sold the house in order to pay some of the bills and ended up moving in with my momma. I could have filed for bankruptcy, but I felt it was my obligation to pay everything off. I focused on clearing my debt.” That determination brought him to Habitat. Leslie says his favorite thing about being a homeowner is living in a peaceful neighborhood. “I can go out back and sit on my deck or on my front porch and it is quite. And, I like having a yard.” Another plus, he says, about his Habitat home has been the lack of repairs. He says he is just now replacing a few things like carpet in the living room and his HVAC unit. “It has been a joy and I have nothing but praise for all the Habitat homeowners. My plan is to stay and pay it off. They are not building a lot of one story houses now, which when you get older is important,” he says. Leslie says being able to stay in his home has given him a lot of confidence to move forward. “I have been able to improve my life professionally and with a consistent mortgage, I have been able to pay off a lot of my bills. I’ve gotten things I want in life because I can afford it. Life is very good. “Even in affordable housing when your salary goes up your rent goes up, but not at Habitat. I am so grateful for Habitat because it has changed my life.”

Moving the Mission
Forward
Innovation and partnerships create more opportunities for the underserved and are but one way we are moving the mission forward with three special iniatives.
Habitat for Humanity of Greater Nashville continues to execute its core mission of building homes, communities and hope annually building between 30-40 award-winning, affordable homes in five counties. In addition, we are also casting a vision to do more… to be thought leaders and partners with other non-profits, government entities, and community collaborators to establish more affordable homes, vibrant communities, more equality, and more quality of life for those who call Middle Tennessee home.
1. Parkwood-Haynes-Trinity Community Collaboration Habitat for Humanity is leading a Community Collaboration to renovate the historic Parkwood Community Club ballfields, to help establish a 59-acre Metro Park, and build 26 quality, affordable Habitat homes in North Nashville. Habitat has created partnerships with Trinity-Haynes Neighborhood Coalition, Metro Parks, Metro Council Woman Kyonzte Toombs,
and the Parkwood Community Club volunteer board to bring this vision to life. Habitat has been building in North Nashville for more than 25 years and these initiatives combined represent a $12 million investment in this under resourced community in District 2. Habitat has raised $1.7 million of funding for the Parkwood ballfields as part of Phase I.
Construction on the ballfields is slated to begin in 2024. Habitat will be installing the north entrance to the proposed 59-acre Metro park, which adjoins Parkwood ballfields, as part of the community revitalization. The park and construction of 26 Habitat homes is slated for 2025.

2. Alliance for an Affordable Nashville Residents, local and state governments, for-profit and non-profit organizations all recognize a healthy vibrant city needs to be affordable for those who live and work in that city, which includes vital community contributors like police officers, teachers, hospitality and government workers. Traditionally, Nashville’s housing non-profits have worked to solve the affordable housing crisis separately, advocating for more funding, streamlined codes and permitting and accessing unused local and state land. Recognizing that more could be accomplished together, 10 housing non-profits including Habitat of Greater Nashville, formed the Alliance for an Affordable Nashville to provide strategic and intentional efforts to address the city’s complex and growing housing crisis.
MEMBERS OF THE ALLIANCE
According to the latest figures, by 2030 Nashville will be short more than 52,000 affordable housing units, using 80 percent or less of the Area Median Income as the measure of affordability. That means 70 percent of Nashvillians are housing cost burdened with that number expected to grow unless more is accomplished.

3. Bridge Building As part of an initiative that started at the White House in 2022, Habitat of Greater Nashville was selected to work with Interfaith America, Catholic Charities, nine other Habitat affiliates, and the YMCA to create bridge building opportunities to foster healthier, more inclusive communities across the country. Habitat’s Director of Faith Relations and Mission Integration Kevin Roberts is leading the project in Nashville that launched this fall.

Everyday Heroes: SOS Perhaps the best way to see our deeply rooted mission through time is by the wisdom and words of our beloved Supervisors on Site (SOS), several of whom have been with us even before the name SOS existed. These volunteers lead the Habitat build experience for the thousands of volunteers who donate their time to help future Habitat homeowners build their homes. SOS are so revered, “Everyday Heroes” came to Nashville and filmed a segment on this extraordinary group of volunteers. We caught up with four of them.
of volunteers could build a safe, wellbuilt, efficient home. And once I saw it happen, I could not stay away.
1. What brought you to Habitat and what made you stay?
Tamara Bavendam: After retirement, I took a six-week car trip. When I returned in July of 2021, I set about trying to build a community in Nashville and looked up Habitat for Humanity. The first day was HOT!! I got assigned to do inside red caulking. I guess I was doing a pretty good job because by afternoon I was going behind others and making sure it was done correctly.
Kurt Denny: I didn’t know ANYTHING about construction. But I looked at the plan. I looked at the wall package. I looked at the floor system (or slab I don’t remember but I think it was floor system), and I looked back at the plan. And it occurred to me that I held in my hands a one-page plan to save the world.
Jean Lauzon: My first experience was as a volunteer with Deloitte in 2003. On the first day of the build, under Supervisor Steve Lainhart, we installed the beam in the crawlspace, floor I-joists, subfloor, chalked the lines for wall placement, erected the walls, top plated the structure, installed the trusses, and sheeted half of the roof. Still not sure how we pulled it off.
2. Did anything stand out from those early days? Tamara Bavendam: I really had no idea how Habitat worked and was very moved when I heard the morning speech about everything the homeowners had to do to become a homeowner. I was amazed by how many different activities were going on and how hard and joyfully everyone worked. Jean Lauzon: One memory was from the training house. We spent at least 20 minutes watching this craftsman install cinder block after cinder block without a wasted motion. We concluded that none of us had jobs that would inspire someone to watch us work for 20-30 minutes, or that we were as elegant in performing our work as a master mason.
Steve Lainhart: My first house was with Westminster Presbyterian Church. I attended the build as I wanted to see just how a bunch

Steve Lainhart: It’s always been so much about the people — the SOS we work with, the volunteers, the sponsors, the families. I want to hang out with people who are drawn to Habitat, or any volunteer community service, that’s where I want to be. Kurt Denny: Only 100 stories. I remember looking at the framing of houses (the bones) early on and knowing a family was going to have a better life just because we showed up on the weekend and made a little sawdust. I remember my first dedication. I cried. I remember a family partner saying once she could "never even hope to dream that I would have a house like this.” She couldn’t dream it. She couldn’t HOPE to dream it. Love is a powerful force.
3. How has Habitat 4. What do you love the changed through the years most about being an from your perspective? SOS? Jean Lauzon: We now concentrate on building energy efficient homes that are easier and less expensive for the homeowners to maintain. We have kept up with modern and efficient building techniques, build to ENERGY STAR® standards, minimize the items that must be painted outside, thus reducing maintenance costs and effort. Tamara Bavendam: Very recently getting more battery operative equipment has made things much easier because we do not have to spend so much time with hose and cord management. Even though I have made PLENTY of mistakes, I have never been made to feel bad about anything. There is a real sense, a shared purpose and appreciation between the Habitat staff, the SOS, and the volunteers.
Kurt Denny: I love watching the volunteers figure out the mystery behind how things get done. Putting hard work and lots of love into every corner. Leaving a little behind as a blessing and next week doing it all again. I love getting to the end of a day, and knowing that someone living in one of these houses is going to do something amazing and in some small way, I had a part in that amazing thing.
Kurt Denny: When I started there were no SOS. We didn’t have everything systemized like we do now. We built fewer houses but did more to them. We used more of our own tools.

Steve Lainhart: At the end of the day, the future homeowners often linger alone in the new structure where they can walk the space from room to room looking out where the windows will be touching the walls. Few conventional homeowners get to experience their own home rising from the dirt, driven by their own dreams, the generosity and commitment of our sponsors, and the mission of Habitat for Humanity. Tamara Bavendam: I love being constantly challenged to learn new things and then be able to teach the volunteers. While motivating the volunteers is generally not a big issue, we also have as much fun as possible. Jean Lauzon: The camaraderie with the staff, other SOS, and the volunteers. We rarely get a grumpy volunteer, so most everybody is there to get work done and have fun.
5. Is there one particular favorite moment?
started the SOS program once told me: ”Even if someone comes out here and nail driving and painting isn’t their thing, if they GET it…what we do…. If they feel the feels of helping out and making a difference, then maybe they go try Second Harvest, or Red Cross, or Thistle Farms…. Maybe they get the feeling and like it enough to go seek out a place they can do something they love and lift someone else up. If that happens than you are helping the whole community." Being a SOS is, of course, about Habitat. But it’s so much more.” Steve Lainhart: I happened to be at this dedication where these sisters, daughters of our homeowner, ran through the house, found a vacant bedroom and broke into a happy dance. They laughed, squealed, danced, and ran around the room and in their joy, they seemed to elevate off the new carpet…in the house that they would come home to for years and years… For the love of it all.
Tamara Bavendam: In May, I fell as I stepped on one of the entry slabs. I scraped my left shin and it immediately started to swell. A group of very innovative volunteers got me some ice immediately and helped me figure out how to tape the ice to my leg so I could get up and work. I kept the ice on for about 90 minutes and it worked great. When I took it off, I hardly had any swelling. About a month ago, one volunteer came up and introduced herself. She was one of the women who had been so helpful. Jean Lauzon: My favorite memories are typically when volunteers realize they built a house or assembled a kitchen.

HABITAT HABITAT FOR FOR HUMANITY HUMANITY OF OF GREATER GREATER NASHVILLE NASHVILLE
"Affordable Here in Nashville is Very, Very Difficult" New Village by the Creek homeowner Sayed Quraishi said what he is most grateful for regarding his new Habitat home is that his children won’t have to change schools again. Sayed has moved twice in the last year looking for an affordable place for his wife and four children, and with his Habitat home, his children can make friends and keep them, he says. “Affordable here in Nashville is very, very difficult when only one person is working an outside job. One of us has to stay home with the kids,” he explains. Sayed moved his family of six into a cheaper apartment as he went through the Habitat homeownership program because their current two-bedroom rent increased to $1,800 monthly, and he points out, his family still needed more space. “I have kids who may want to go to college and I have to plan for them. Homeownership is the biggest platform I have started. But I always want to be there to help others too,” he says of his build site experience, working alongside other future Habitat homeowners.

Sayed Quaraishi HABITAT HOMEOWNER
Sayed says his wife encouraged him to apply for the Habitat for Humanity homeownership program and it has been an honor for him to work alongside other future homeowners, volunteers, and staff. Sayed’s smile, construction skills and work ethic were always on display at the Habitat build site the past year. Sayed speaks seven languages and worked for the U.S. government in his home country of Afghanistan endangering his life and the lives of his family. The U.S. government relocated him and his family in 2017. He has a law and political science degree and one day wants to own his own restaurant. But for now, he is focused on building more platforms of stability for his family.
