Virtual Day of Giving - Saturday, May 15, 2021 As we prepare for our Day of Giving event to sponsor our 14th family, we would like to introduce you to our 12th and 13th Habitat families. These families have been working towards home ownership alongside the volunteers. Meet the Alfaro Family Nora Alfaro has always wanted to own a home where her children can thrive, and because of your support, that dream will soon be a reality. “Thank you for giving us the opportunity to purchase our own home and have a place where my children can be safe and grow up. We are so grateful for everything,” says Nora. Nora is a single mother living with her two children, Madelyn and Riky, in a small apartment. Not only do they live in an unsafe area, but there’s also mold throughout the apartment, which has negatively affected their health. The apartment is so small that her son Riky is currently sleeping in the living room and doesn’t have a space of his own. Nora has tried to purchase a home for years but could never afford the high mortgage costs. Thanks to your support, their lives will change completely. “I’m most excited for my children to have their own room and space to grow up. When we move in, Madelyn is so excited to have children her age to play with. We are so grateful,” says Nora. Meet the Rodriguez Family Mayra and Jose Rodriguez are thrilled to become future Habitat homeowners in Port Hueneme and can’t wait to start building their future home alongside supporters like you. Jose is a carpenter and Mayra is a Kindergarten teacher. The couple is currently living with Mayra’s parents at their home. “We work hard and want to start a family of our own, but also want to be financially stable and have our own place for our future kids to grow up and have space. Plus, we want our own space as a married couple. That’s everything a young, hardworking couple or person should be able to achieve. I know this is a struggle many young people just like us are facing,” says Mayra. When they got the call that they had been accepted, they said it was life-changing and that everything is finally falling into place for them. “Thank you for your support, you and all of Habitat’s incredible support system are making our dreams come true,” says Mayra. Donations are being accepted now. If you would like to donate towards building materials or be a Habitat Hero by donating at a Sponsorship level, please see: www.habitatventura.org/habitattothemax/ or scan the QR code (to the right) to be directed to our site.
