2009 Habitat partner families are moved in! |
 Photo: The VanAnda family check out their home in Hibbing they are working on in partnership with the Chisholm, Hibbing, Nashwauk-Keewatin High Schools and the Hibbing Community College.
The warm days this first week in March make us all think towards spring!
Three Habitat partner families from the 2009 building season have been enjoying their new homes in Aurora, Babbitt and Eveleth. AS the snow melts they are all looking forward to new yards to enjoy.
Two projects remain for the 2009 building season. A home in Virginia and a home in Hibbing are being built in partnership with high school construction classes. These homes are well on their way and will be the "class room" for the remainder of the school year. The Mcarty-Jolanen and VanAnda families will be shceduled to move in at the close of the school year in May.
North St. Louis County Habitat for Humanity would like to heartily thank all volunteers, donors and partners who have contributed so faithfuly to help families build a home which they can afford this season. Look for new construction volunteer opportunities in early June!
Learn more about our current projects for specific build days and plans.

Habitat is seeking Homeowner Applicants |
 Think home ownership is out of reach?
Heather, 2009 Habitat homeowner pictured right, no longer thinks so!
Heather was working with a realtor to try to find a home in the community of Aurora. Though she was working several jobs, she could not find a home to fit her budget. Before concluding that homeownership was out of her reach, she applied and was accepted to Habitat’s program.
Heather grew up in a family that worked in construction. She was excited to work with volunteers to build a home she could afford and tackled the construction of her home with enthusiasm. She worked beside volunteers to form the foundation, pour concrete and frame walls. Heather even led a crew of 30 women on Habitat’s first Women Build Day to install siding and insulation.
Homeownership may have been just out of her reach but not after Habitat for Humanity put a hammer in her hand!
“This is a dream come true that could not have been a reality without your help!”
~ Heather Dimich-Jackson
