Habitat for Humanity in Wayne County, Inc.'s Mission- "Habitat for Humanity in Wayne County, Inc. works in partnership with God and people from all walks of life to develop communities with God's people in need by building and renovating houses. Habitat in Wayne County is committed to partnership in which the self-esteem of the partner family is enhanced and each family can become active contributors to their respective communities."
Habitat for Humanity in Wayne County, Ohio is a non-profit organization that seeks to unite volunteers with those in need of affordable housing. Habitat depends on donations, various fundraising efforts, a joint venture with the future owner, and volunteer labor. Habitat works with low income families who are unable to secure a conventional home loan but are willing to invest "sweat equity". Helping people build new houses and rehabilitate existing homes often transcends boundaries of culture, race, and status. The result is a decent, simple home for a family in need and a greater sense of community for all those involved. The Habitat for Humanity International web site contains more information on Habitat's history, mission, volunteer opportunities and contact information for other Habitat affiliates around the world.

Congratulations to the Bowers Family! They are the proud new owners of House #70, 352 N. Seneca St., Rittman.
Our sincere gratitude to FirstEnergy for providing a generous grant to help make this house a home for the Bowers Family.
Many thanks to the Rittman community for their special hospitality and warm welcome.
A tip of the hat to Rittman High School Class of 1965 for your donation in memory of classmate John Gavinesky, a former owner of the property. The devotion you've shown to your fellow class-mates and community makes this house build even more special.
