1| Annual Report 2021 A LOOK BACK AT THE YEAR A message from our Executive Director Danielle Johnson I am excited to be serving as Executive Director of this growing organization. It has been an incredible seven months since the baton was passed to me by the amazing Ann Fox who continues to serve as an active mentor in my affordable housing journey. Community is my passion and this role has helped me dive deeper into community engagement and equity work. Affordable housing is a key issue across the country and our community. Wichita Habitat for Humanity continues to bring this issue to the forefront of the community and 2021 was no different. We are still in the midst of a pandemic and many of us are continuing to understand the importance of having a decent place to live. In October, Wichita Habitat turned 35 - continuing the legacy of making affordable housing a priority in the Sedgwick County community. We’ve embraced a spirit of celebration in the face of adversity. Last year we faced several challenges from COVID, the rising cost of building materials, and supply chain issues. We are continuing to claim victory as we march forward with building a world where everyone has a decent place to live. Highlights of 2021 include: 40 families served, 21 new, safe and affordable homes built - this is record-breaking! 19 homeowners served through our home repair program. None of this would have been possible without our dedicated homeowners, hardworking volunteers, sponsors, and staff. Advocacy Efforts Expanded: While building and repairing homes is a part of the foundation of what Habitat does, advocacy is another important tenet that expanded last year. We hosted our first Legislative Build, bringing elected and governmental employees together to volunteer and understand the mission, vision and values of Habitat. We connected the homeowners’ stories, volunteer opportunities, and most importantly the history of housing inequities. This effort left a lasting impression on every attendee and we look forward to the growth of our Legislative Build. ReStore continues to play an important role in affordable home improvement access and recycling options. We are proud of the continued growth in the home improvement space and want to ensure that customers start their projects at ReStore. We look forward to continuing to create tangible housing opportunities through new construction, home repairs and housing policy. I’m blessed to work alongside the most passionate homeowners, core volunteers, community and corporate volunteers, staff, board, and last but certainly not least, sponsors. Wichita Habitat for Humanity will continue to push forward affordable housing solutions into 2022 alongside you.

11| Annual Report 2021 LOOKING FORWARD Message from our Board Chair Chris Bohm A current TV advertisement features the tagline “Fortune favors the Brave.” As 2022 begins for Wichita Habitat for Humanity, two themes from this phrase resonate in parallel with our mission: 1. Fortune - Our ongoing investment in our community by serving our Habitat families and providing them the opportunity for homeownership, and: 2. Brave – We will bravely pursue our goals during 2022 and have been blessed with the ability to continue our work into this new year. We will move boldly forward in 2022 under the leadership of Executive Director Danielle Johnson who will lead us in reaching our goals of constructing 14 new homes in partnership with our Habitat families and facilitating 24 critical home repairs. This will provide 38 homeowners with safe, affordable homes. The Home Repair program received a Federal Home Loan Bank grant which is allowing us to expand these services including the ability to hire new dedicated staff. Other exciting events we look forward to during 2022 include: The Legacy Build 2022, our first build of 2022, is possible by a longstanding donor’s gift in honor of former Executive Director and super-volunteers, Ann Fox and Mark Fox. The Wichita State University Build will cross the finish line in 2022. New partners, new volunteers, a new home. Raise the Roof returns on Friday, April 29, at Distillery 244.

And we are brave in the pursuit of our mission by knowing that our work will continue to be blessed if we strive to act as the hands and feet of Jesus Christ as we work in our community.
