Join us for the SECOND ANNUAL  “Raising the Roof”

Hart cartoon

Fundraising Gala at the Forum

In true “Habitat” style, this “tool belts and ties”, “meet and greet” casual dinner party offers a relaxed networking affair – a truly unique couples or parents night out, happy hour, or girls / guys time gathering, but - best of all – a break at the end of a hard days work!

Dedication

of our 23rd

home

 

 Built with love for the Doski Family 134 Mary St., Binghamton,
was on Saturday, August 2, 2008.

The United Methodist Churches of Broome County joined forces to help fund the construction of the South Side home.  To date, twenty-one of those congregations have raised about $40,000, and some have come on site to help with the actual construction. 

The Doski family is very excited to leave their over crowed apartment, and move into this simple, decent, and quality constructed home.  What fine craftsmanship, thanks to our caring volunteers!

 

  
 
House #22

But Family’s House Dedicated

In the spring of 2004, the interior of a large, six bedroom house on Binghamton’s Northside was completely destroyed by hot water that burst from a broken pipe. The owners, not wanting to invest the time or money to renovate, donated the house to Broome County Habitat.

The house has been completely rehabilitated by our many volunteers and sold to a couple and their ten children. This house will not only provide an affordable housing opportunity for a family, but transform a dilapidated, vacant property into a house that is back on the local tax roll.

While on its way to give a concert at Binghamton’s First Congregational Church, the “Bubble” stopped by our Linden St. house to learned how our work makes a better world. To see video of our Wednesday Crew sharing their thoughts,  visit www.youtube.com & search “peace bubble habitat”.

House #21

 dedicated

in Endwell 		"A Family Gets a Home for the Holidays"
 
Local government officials joined Broome County Habitat for Humanity as they dedicated their 21st  home in Broome County, their first in Endwell . The house, donated by the Shute Family,  was once a chiropractic office.
 
With the help of its volunteers, Habitat completely gutted the house, renovated it, and  sold it to a couple and their two children.   They are in the home just in time for the holidays!
