Hartford Habitat Completes Rehab Project

Information via Habitat for Humanity

HARTFORD, CT — Hartford Habitat will hold a dedication ceremony on December 7th for their most recent rehab project on Beach Road in Bloomfield. The property had been left abandoned for many years and had become an eyesore in a lovely neighborhood.

Maribel Diaz and her son Austin will move in to the house in time for the holidays. She says, “Today we feel blessed. God knows exactly what you need and when you need it. Thanks to Hartford Area Habitat for Humanity I will soon be a homeowner. We are beyond excited and so grateful to be a part of such an amazing organization that helps families achieve the goal of owning an affordable home.”

Hartford Habitat is increasing their number of rehab projects to create more opportunities for affordable housing in established neighborhoods. By working with town officials, Habitat is able to acquire properties that have been left to deteriorate. Providing critical repairs and updates, houses that otherwise were a nuisance to the neighborhood and the town are able to be transformed into beautiful homes.

Hartford Area Habitat for Humanity has built over 300 homes in the Greater Hartford Area. Habitat partners with families, communities and volunteers to build safe, decent, and sustainable housing.
