So grateful for our work, for what we do..for our Local Project Committee leaders, we know as LPCs ..

Local committees..leadership..we have committees in NewRochelle, in White Plains, Yonkers,

Ossining, Peekskill and more..we have had them in Bedford, Larchmont, Somers, and all across the county..All Habitat is local.

As we move ahead start a committee in your town or city, be a leader, email jim@habitatwc.org for more info on how you can be a local leader, start a committee and make it happen! Its time.

Affordable home ownership is the number one important issue for NYs success and success of this country…it is time!

With that in mind, we give thanks to our Puerto Rican Day Parade friends, those who marched, our Puerto Rican American families the

#NPRDP committee. I remember going to visit Habitat Puerto Rico, where there was a request to support building homes for families outside San Juan near Martin Pena Canal. Visiting the Habitat the team was so pleased and we saw walls of love again there.

Walls of love..safe walls of love, we go to Yonkers to help create a new Neighborhood Revitalization effort deepening our work in the Ashburton corridor..amazing..stay tuned!

We have a ten point goal there for immediate transformation….

Tomorrow we gladly welcome the #Hyperlink Team out for a transformation day. Dave and Lucy and their team are amazing..ready to kick it hard, ready to transform lives, ready to change their neighborhoods and others….like our Gateways Initiative! On Mt Vernon Avenue!

We are so blessed to be able to transform neighborhoods and lives. At this point in my life, I know we can change any neighborhood..from working on the Lower east side when empty buildings abounded, and helped to transform it, to the toughest neighborhoods with the finest people I have ever met in my life, God has blessed me and Habitat with this gift now..

Last Sandy relief..dont think it is over by any means….we continue and next week we welcome a group from Virginia…to help us work to help us transform Sandy families homes! 

Our work is really worthy of support.. Wont you make a donation today to our vital work..we need it for the summer of building and hope for our veterans and love for our neighbors! God bless you and God bless America! Bendiciones!
