Each year Indian River Habitat for Humanity builds approximately 30 homes for deserving, low-income families.These families work hard to make home ownership a possibility, putting in “sweat-equity” hours and diligently saving their money.Once they are in their homes they must continue to work hard to pay a zero interest mortgage along with other bills they may have.
This often leaves little money for proper child care and little if any money to provide a post-secondary education for their children. The Indian River Habitat for Humanity Scholarship Fund was formed Habitat to help give homeowners and their children a chance at higher education.This fund helps to provide educational after-school care and summer care by subsidizing cost and grants scholarships for students and homeowners who are college-bound or for post-secondary educational programs.
Please consider sponsoring this important and fun event!
