Home For The Holidays

The holiday season is a time to gather with loved ones, create lasting memories, and reflect on the year’s blessings. For families in El Paso County, having a safe, stable home can make all the difference—and you can help make that possible.

Will you help us continue building stories of hope in El Paso County?

For Mariela and Ricardo’s family, the last two holiday seasons have been filled with joy and transformation.

Before building and purchasing their home with Pikes Peak Habitat, Mariela, Ricardo, and their 4 sons, Elian, Edahi, Ederic, and Emilio, all lived in a crowded space with extended relatives. Now, Ricardo describes their home as peaceful; a place they can truly call their own. And for the first time, they’re able to host Christmas in their own home.

“We used to rent a venue just to fit everyone for our Christmas party,” Mariela shares. “Now that we have our home, everyone can come here.”

This holiday season, you can help open more doors for families like Mariela and Ricardo’s. Your gift to Pikes Peak Habitat for Humanity builds more than a home; it builds hope, stability, and a future.

When we were told we were selected for the homeownership program, it wasn't just happiness about having a house, it felt like doors were opened to so many possibilities for our family.
