Meet a Partner Family

Heather and her Two Children

Born and raised in Denver, Heather works a full-time job, is pursuing her Bachelor's degree part-time and cares for her two children. After stretching every paycheck as far as it could go, she and her children are very excited to be moving into their new Habitat home.

Their current apartment is badly in disrepair. The family is worried that the bathroom ceiling will collapse from water damage and the kitchen cabinets fall apart when they are opened. Heather's daughter suffers from asthma and is affected when neighbors smoke cigarettes outside their apartment.

Heather and her children know all of this will change when they move into their new Habitat home. Her children are looking forward to playing sports outside and starting school in a new district. Heather is grateful that she has been given the opportunity to learn about construction and repairs during her sweat equity hours and is thankful for the opportunity to meet other Habitat families.

Heather would like to show that through hard work and determination, homeownership is possible. She's excited to be able to ride bikes and do yard work with her children in the future.
