As the Board President of Habitat for Humanity of the Tri State, it was my pleasure to attend our affiliate’s 158th home dedication, along with our executive Director David Michael, and staff.
This was for Ricky Bush, an Army veteran, as part of Habitat’s veteran’s rebuild program that was started with our affiliate in 2014.
We do a lot of work fundraising, dealing with board issues, volunteering, etc. but to see this all come to fruition, with a new home dedication is always a heart warming experience. It has been my pleasure to have been at half a dozen, or more, of these dedications during my time on the board, and as board president. To be able to help deserving individuals and families, live in new, energy efficient, cost effective housing, is a wonderful experience in giving back. I would encourage more people to get involved with their local affiliates.
