“I’m deeply grateful for the support of our volunteers and partners who help make homeownership possible for families in Huntington County year after year. Safe, affordable housing lays the foundation for opportunity, stability, and a stronger future for our entire community.”
Jack Barlow
Habitat GFW Huntington Area Manager
One of the homes to be built this season will be The Charlotte, Habitat GFW’s first two-story home in the county. Thoughtfully planned for both space and accessibility, the 1,396-square-foot house includes four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a first-floor bedroom and bath to support universal design; part of Habitat’s ongoing partnership with AWS Foundation to create inclusive, accessible spaces for families of all abilities. The home will also feature a front porch, back patio, and attached storage shed.
Construction on the home with a Triumph floorplan — a one-story, 3-bedroom, 2-bath, 1,170 sq. ft. — will begin immediately following the press conference with help from Gerdau volunteers.
This Huntington build is made possible thanks to the generous support of this season’s sponsors, including The Ardelle and Theresa Glaze Foundation, IHCDA, Bendix, Schroeder’s Automotive, Garage Experts, Bippus State Bank, and Incipio Devices.
