The application process is OPEN NOW! A huge thanks to the construction team for building these signs that are located throughout our community.

An extra special thanks to US Bank, Fraser Valley Distilling, and Rendezvous Center for allowing our signs a temporary home while we look for our next potential homeowner.

What’s remarkable about this photograph is the breadth of tasks being undertaken, all at once, by artist and Habitat Grand County Board Secretary Lisa Steen. Not only is she designing, painting, and decorating birdhouse ornaments for the Habitat tree in the recent Festival of Trees in Fraser, but she’s also participating in a Homeowner Services Committee meeting via Zoom. Talented bunch!

Prospective Habitat homeowners Michael Bunker and Lacey Lund at House #14 in Hot Sulphur Springs

The increased building pace of our invigorated volunteers has led to a happy consequence — the chance to build relationships between Habitat neighbors in Hot Sulphur Springs. Michael Bunker, who soon will complete the purchase of House #13 and move in with his three children, has been doing final finish work on his own house, but also has been helping frame House #14 next door alongside prospective homeowner Lacey Lund. This is how Habitat for Humanity of Grand County is building a community, one house at a time.

One of the central tenets of Habitat for Humanity is that selected homeowners become partners in the construction of their own home. In late May, Lacey Lund, a single mom from Fraser, logged the first of her  minimum 200 hours of “sweat equity” to make her dream of home ownership a reality. If she completes the program, she and her two youngest children will live in House #14 built by Habitat for Humanity of Grand County in Hot Sulphur Springs.

 

Interested in applying to become the next Habitat homeowner in Grand County? The first step is to attend one of two Zoom meetings scheduled for Feb. 3 and Feb. 5, 2022. Contact Lisa Cooper at habitatgrandcounty.org, or 970-887-9138, for the meeting link.
