My boys will never worry about having a place to stay. I’m working hard so they have better opportunities — I want them to have better than I have. I will kick down those doors so they can walk through them.

2 Homes in Huntington
We’re excited to be building another two homes in Huntington! Each season, we aim to build two affordable homes for hardworking Habitat Partner Families from Huntington County.
Joseph
Habitat Homeowner
Meet Joseph
Joseph was a gunner in the military for many years before being discharged due to an injury he sustained while on duty. Despite his physical disabilities, Joseph is always pushing himself to help others, even before helping himself. He’s excited to prove to himself and his family that you can overcome obstacles and good things come to good people. In his new home, Joseph plans to train therapy and service animals for fellow veterans.
“I’ve struggled most of my life to get where I’m at, and today is a blessing. I couldn’t have done this without everyone who came together from the community to make this happen. Without you, I wouldn’t have this opportunity and I cannot thank you enough.”
