Beautifully refurbished furniture pieces from the Habitat ReStore are available for purchase during a live auction hosted by our friends from The Steffen Group.
We’ll talk with one of our recent homeowners and learn about their journey to Habitat and how affordable homeownership is impacting their life.
Enjoy complimentary local eats and desserts as well as unlimited beer and wine, with a cash bar available for mixed drinks.
“This home is a blessing. We are grateful and thankful to God and everyone who has had a hand in it, thank you so much. Our kids have enough room to play in our new home and they have their own bedrooms. This home is changing our children’s lives.”
After living in a refugee camp for 20 years, Vincent and Gentile were able to move to the United States and start their family. Becoming homeowners was their greatest dream. “Where I grew up is not anywhere I wish anyone to be. I have always had a dream of changing my life.”
Vincent discovered Habitat as he drove through Southeast Fort Wayne and saw Habitat homes under construction. When he got home Gentile told him of a friend who had been accepted into the program and they knew it was worth a try. After being accepted into the Homeownership Program, Vincent shared that you learn the value of your home through volunteering on the construction site and attending classes.

Goddess Contractors or “GCs” (a play-off of the term General Contractor) are female community leaders who assemble a team to crowdfund and refurbish furniture items donated through the Habitat ReStore. Each one-of-a-kind, secondhand piece, is then styled at the event venue the night of the gala and auctioned off with all of the accessories.
