This season, our goal was to add more texture and interest to our homes' front elevations, while keeping them affordable. This season, we added board and batten siding and updated roof lines as seen below in our 3-bed, 2-bath floorplan. Thank you Trevor Bauer for helping us improve our homes and invest in Southeast #FortWayne!
“What’s special about the ReStore is you can find new and used items for your home at really competitive prices. That funding goes right into our home building program.” - Mara Kessler-Rondot, Business Development Manager Learn more about the #fortwayne Habitat ReStore: https://bit.ly/3ViCgsO
Our CFO, Josh, just celebrated his 1st anniversary with Habitat GFW and he's the latest recipient of our championship belt! Josh is our very own Ben Wyatt (Parks & Rec fans know) and since day one he has been a servant leader for our organization. Recently, Josh helped define our new 5-year strategic plan and oversaw the corresponding budget. We're grateful for his guidance, organization, and love of spreadsheets. Thank you Josh for all you do!
