Habitat for Humanity Car Donation Review

In 1993, I established a student chapter of HfH at my college, Edinboro University. My inspiration came from a service work project in Appalachia and a desire to build a competitive application for a Peace corps teaching assignment in Africa. All of these years later, I still support HfH monthly. After a total and sudden loss of home and its contents due to a fire, I had a renewed and heightened sense of the significance of a home and are good fortune to have insurance and community. The effect of displacement on my children, whose basic needs were met without interruption was outsized. There isn?t a week that goes by without a thought of what was. My insight into the barriers that families and children are faced with when home stability is in question provided clarity on so many questions that I once had when working with economically disadvantaged populations.

Thank You, Rosemary!
