LUK INC. of Wooster Sponsored two houses one in 2003 and one in 2005. Many of their employees took part in building as well. We're grateful for making the dreams of homeownership for two families (including 6 children) come true!
National City Bank sponsored our Pittsburg Ave. House. We enjoyed partnering with several of their employees as we built this house together.
First Energy is gracious to Habitats all across the country. We were privileged to be a part of their generosity in 2005 when they funded the building of the Hailey family's home.
Our own Habitat ReStore has funded two and half houses since its opening in November or 2004! This year the ReStore presented Habitat with a $30,000.00 check to fund one half of of our Womens build house. The other $30,000.00 was presented on the same day by Zion Lutheran Church a long time friend and faithful supporter of Habitat. A celebration and check presentation took place on July 31, 2006 at the Zion Lutheran Church Sunday morning service. We're grateful to God for these two donors who've combined to help us build the Day family a home.
