Forest Hills Renovation For Single Mom

Saturday December 12, HFHGP passed the keys of a two story home, a donation from the previous owners, in Forest Hills over to Ms. Yolanda Keyes and her daughter Shaque.  Yolanda put in 350 hours of sweat equity over the past few months working alongside Habitat volunteers while balancing her full time job at UPMC Mercy.  Her hard work has finally paid off as she and her daughter are now getting ready for the holidays in their new home!  Click here to read more about our dedication ceremony in Forest Hills.

New Home Gives New Freedom to Family's Son

After beginning their sweat equity work back in April of this year Barbara Jackson and her three sons were overjoyed to move into their new home in Wilkinsburg in October.  Barbara's youngest, Lamel, requires the use of a wheelchair and has never in his 20 years been able to move freely in his own home.  Now thanks to the tireless work of his family, Habitat volunteers, and staff Lamel has a newfound level of independence he never dreamed could be possible.  Find out more in the Tribune Review's story by clicking here.  Congratulations to Lamel, Barbara, and the rest of the Jackson family!

Thank you to all who attended the dedications, and helped these families achieve the dream of home ownership! A whole new world of opportunity is now open to them and it never would have been possible without you!
