This home was originally started by the Habitat of Northern Fox Valley, affiliate, but with the Covid-19 restrictions it was placed on hold.
Spring of Life picked up from where they left off. We are so proud to completing this home and celebrating with another new homeowner. For more photos of this home as we worked on it, CLICK HERE.

He later migrated to the US. and after a long application process, Jennifer joined him and they had their daughter. Unfortunately, the marriage dissolved, leaving Jennifer and her daughter homeless.

August 2020, Homeowner Celebration: One of the great satisfactions of working with Habitat for Humanity of Northern Fox Valley families is to see the transformative affect it creates. Habitat not only addresses the need for affordable housing, which provides new economic stability for a family, it also creates wealth. In August 2020, one of our homeowners made their last mortgage payment. They have achieved the American dream of owning their own home. This is an outstanding accomplishment!
