Today OUR HOW GREEN IS YOUR HOME SERIES begins.. At our Mt Vernon Restore…

Saving energy..one of the most important things of our time..do we fight for energy, do we save it, do we abuse it .

24 seven we are connected, we have energy we are making use of it..our computers, our cable, our refrigerator.

Having been to so many countries, I can appreciate what we are looking at..no electricity, no running water..delivered barrels of water

\we take it all for granted don't we..

SO ATTEND OUR SERIES, HOW GREEN IS YOUR HOME ..today in Mt Vernon, then get great buys, and shop around..

At the HABITAT RESTORE… with that in mind we say also please for our 25TH ANNIVERSARY, lets make it happen,

Lets join together, lets bring us to a different level…so grateful! 

May God bless each and every one of you…WALK FOR HOMES NOW NOV 2ND..OUR KICKOFF..JOIN US! AMEN!

PS HAPPY NEW YEAR TO OUR JEWISH BROTHERS AND SISTERS!

Each second is gift..

We have so many great things happen to us..we have people who help us all the time, we have hope in our neighborhoods! 

NEIGHBORHOOD REVITALIZATION! that’s what we do..we help engage meet, embrace, work with, lift up together neighborhoods in amazing ways.. God is in charge..no question!

We are in what some might consider some of the worst neighborhoods, but we are in some of the BEST neighborhoods, one in the same.

Some of the finest people I have met live in our turnover neighborhoods..I have in my life been an agent of change, front eh Eastside of Paterson,

To theLowereast side of NY, to central ward of Newark, to Sw ashburton Yonkers, to Your First on First in Mt Vernon..what a gift for me!

Sat  our Marching Band,…the Fire the Habitat Marching Band,…had our cookout in a parking lot…with fifty people.

People from all over the neighborhood, came to our cookout to raise money for uniforms..

The kids played in thirteen parades..they live in some of the worst housing projects in Nyarea.

But they have HOPE…and they have HABITAT!

We are so blessed to evolve amazing things….In our hoods..its GOOD TO BE IN THE HOOD..with Habitat.

Join us.. Donate to us..help us change Neighborhoods together!
