HAVE YOU EVER BEEN
TO A HOME DEDICATION??
The
dedication of a home is the most exciting part of the Habitat for Humanity
program. It is at this ceremony that the family receives the keys to their
new home. An opportunity for all the
volunteers and sponsors to come check out the completed home, the event is
open to everyone, especially those who wish to find out what Habitat for
Humanity of Pinellas County is all about.
Little Donor, Big Heart
7 Year Old Donates Birthday Money
to Help Build Habitat Homes
It all started
when
Steven Lindenmeyer told
his mom Pam that he was concerned about families who don't have nice places
to call home. So he decided to ask for donation money for Habitat Pinellas
rather than presents for his 7th birthday. "I got the idea from my mind,"
says Steven. Thanks
to Steven's mind and big heart, $200 was raised to help families in need of
safe, decent homes. THANKS STEVEN! (PHOTO CAPTION: Steven came to the
office to present his checks. As a thank you, the construction department
gave him his own hard hat and a special can of water from Habitat's
Hurricane Katrina rebuilding efforts.)
Community Building
Habitat Pinellas to House More
Families with Two Large Scale Projects
Currently in the planning
stages, Shady Grove in Dunedin and Stevens Creek in Clearwater may be
Habitat Pinellas' first opportunities to build subdivisions and provide
affordable housing on a larger scale. [PLEASE NOTE: Although we are taking
applications for properties throughout the county and we invite potential
homeowner candidates to learn more about our program, we cannot offer
applications specific to these projects.]
