More than 250 homes will be built, renovated and repaired in communities across the country this week, as thousands of professional homebuilders and suppliers partner with Habitat for Humanity in the 2018 Home Builders Blitz.
Members of Habitat for Humanity’s senior leadership team, Habitat employees and community members gathered to formally dedicate Habitat’s operational headquarters building in honor of the organization’s “spiritual father” Clarence Jordan.
Clarence Jordan’s spiritual teachings and partnership concepts provide the underpinnings that still guide Habitat’s work today.
This marks the 19th year the appliance manufacturer and nonprofit organization have collaborated to support families in need of affordable housing.
The family preparedness plan contains four steps that families should take to be ready for any disaster.
When a disaster strikes, your family might not be together, and communication channels might be down. It is important to plan how you will contact one another and discuss how you will communicate in different disaster situations.
Disabilities and special needs can make it challenging to prepare for and respond to a disaster. If you or someone you know needs assistance, it is important to plan ahead.
The partnership will engage hundreds of Cotiviti employees working alongside Habitat homeowners and community members in homebuilding and renovations, as well as volunteering at their local Habitat for Humanity ReStores.
With Abbvie’s support, Habitat will partner directly with hurricane-affected families to address their shelter needs as part of the the long-term solution for Puerto Rico.
The donation will be used to help families and communities rebuild stronger and more resilient places to call home.
