Ivan our veteran we build for, and with…worked to volunteer for a family, whose child was killed, we moved that family from a tough neighborhood to a great one..”it was the greatest feeling of accomplishment knowing that his family was receiving this house..i asked myself if I deserved a house..i was forced to live in public housing since the 80s and present.  Having to try to keep my family away from all the crime was stressful.  …having a habitat house would be a dream come true…”
