DOW Sponsors Kim Foster House

Our friends at DOW Chemical and Habitat for Humanity have partnered together to sponsor the home of Kim Foster and family. In May, they framed and raised the roof on the 4 bedroom house. Our regular crew members and Kim Foster and her friends and family have been working diligently to get Kim and her sons in their house at the earliest possible date. Thanks to everyone that is involved in this very special build!

The Shafi's are Home!

Thanks to the hard work and generosity of our regular crews and the Midland South District of United Methodist Churches, the Shafi family has moved into their new Habitat home!

There were many kind hearts and hard working hands that contributed to this 10 week build. Saturn of Hurricane, Bowles, Rice, McDavid, Graff & Love, Teays Valley Presbyterian and Enterprise Rent-a-Car also partnered with us to make this happen in a short amount of time. The weather was our most fierce opponent, causing rain outs and cancellations and therefore forcing us to fall behind schedule several times. But the extra hands were just a phone call away and we were able to rally and get back on schedule. Dedication was held on June 7th and the Sahfi’s are “home sweet Habitat home”.
