Meet our 2023 homeowner: Fatima
This year’s Blitz will change her and her children’s lives! Here is her story:
Chef’s Habitat home will be haven for good food and love
As a chef at an Orlando retirement home, Fatima envisions so many possibilities in her new Habitat home’s kitchen – preparing healthy meals for her two boys, ages 6 and 14, testing recipes for her future catering/food truck business, and assembling hundreds of plates to deliver to homeless people.
“It’s my kitchen… my kitchen,” she said in awe. “I’m going to give it so much love and it’s going to give me love back.”
Thank you to our 2023 builder: Park Square Homes
Local builder and developer celebrates its 9th Habitat house
This is the ninth year that local builder and developer Park Square Homes will donate all the labor and materials to build a Habitat home in a week. That’s nine families since 2015 who will have a safe and affordable home thanks to the family-owned builder.
“We’ve enjoyed every year doing it,” Park Square Homes Co-CEO Suresh Gupta said. “We’re really proud of what we’ve been able to accomplish.”
Thank you to our 2023 partners:
Help us build more affordable housing in Central Florida
A safe, affordable home provides local families the stability and security they need to thrive. When a Habitat family opens their front door for the first time, they unlock the ability to change and improve their futures.
Please consider donating today to give local families this opportunity – and help build a stronger Central Florida community.
