A Message From Penny Wallis

This year marks the 12th year for the Habitat for Humanity-Boone County, Indiana - Women Build and I am excited for this year to be my 8th year as a Team Leader as well as my 10th year building a home for a deserving, hard-working Boone County family in need of affordable housing. I love the camaraderie with my teammates as we build together and the sense of excitement each of us gets upon learning a new skill (using a power saw, reading an electrical wiring diagram or installing soffit and windows)! And I love the heartwarming/ emotional house dedication when the project is complete and the family receives the keys to their new home. Building a home comes with many costs so I am challenging myself to raise a total of $1,500 to assist in funding this project. Each participant is asked to contribute a minimum of $250 towards the total building expenses (over $130,00) and I hope you will be able to support me in meeting my goal. Any donation, whether it be financial or thoughts of encouragement and prayers, will be gratefully appreciated. With this year's theme of "Every Home Has A Story," I hope you will be a supporting character in helping a Boone County family live out "their story" in an affordable home. With much gratitude – Penny

In Support of Habitat for Humanity Boone County

Habitat for Humanity of Boone County envisions a world where everyone has a decent, safe, and affordable place to call home. As Christ’s hands and feet, we put this vision into action by building and improving homes alongside individuals and families who are working toward housing stability. We believe that a home is more than four walls—it is a foundation for strength, stability, and opportunity. Through partnerships with volunteers, donors, businesses, and community organizations, we create pathways to sustainable homeownership and help break the cycle of poverty. Since 1984, Habitat for Humanity of Boone County has been offering a hand up, not a handout. Our partner families invest in their homes through sweat equity and work side by side with volunteers to build a place they are proud to call home. To date, we have built 82 homes and helped more than 250 hardworking adults and children achieve greater housing stability and the dream of homeownership.

Together, we are building more than houses—we are building hope, opportunity, and stronger communities.
