Yesterday we held a Home Dedication Ceremony for four single mothers and their families! Their homes would not have been possible if not for HOME funding from Housing and Urban Development administered by the City of Colorado Springs Government’s Community Development Division. Thanks to this funding and the generous support of our volunteers and donors, Gayle, Jennifer, Rebecca, and Yolanda will now own their forever homes!
Although these four new homeowners come from different backgrounds, each pursued purchasing a home with Pikes Peak Habitat for Humanity out of a desire to provide stability for their children. Homeownership is a crucial foundation for helping low-income families find a path out of poverty. Moving out of substandard housing and into decent, affordable homes allows homeowners and their families to improve their health, educational attainment, safety, and provides opportunities for families to thrive for generations. Together, these women worked side-by-side to build each other’s homes and their families' futures. 💖💪🏘
Congratulations, ladies! This is what happens when families, communities and Habitat join hands ❤️ well done to all!
We're accepting applications January 13-17 & 21-24 for new construction homes located in Fountain, CO and Colorado Springs, CO!

"The need for more generosity is urgent. The need for a movement to create real, systemic change is very real."
At Pikes Peak Habitat for Humanity, we believe that everyone should have a healthy, affordable place to call home. More than just building homes… we build communities. Together with our supporters, donors, and volunteers, we build the opportunity for families to pay an affordable mortgage, to give back to their community, and to live fuller lives for generations. Thank you so much for your support! ❤️
