The money is also used to assist new owners in repair and upgrading of homes. “We are finishing up remodel- ing a house that was returned to us by a previous family. It is being restored to a near-new con- dition. The Pinnock-Davis fami- ly has been putting in their sweat-equity hours as part of the qualification for this house. Hopefully, they will be able to move in by mid October,” Stent said. Florence Habitat also has additional houses that will be refurbished to go to selected fam- ilies in the near future.

These include roof repairs, ramps, win- dows and bath remodeling, among other projects. Right now, we are running behind on these projects due to a shortage of vol- unteers with construction skills. Anyone who is interested in working on short-term projects is encouraged to come by the Habitat office and pick up a vol- unteer application,” Stent said.
