Habitat for Humanity
Habitat for Humanity works with families and volunteers to build homes and strengthen our communities.  We build together because we live together and want to put Jesus' teachings to work in the heart of Texas and Texans.

From the Building Committee
The weather continues to stymie the progress on the Gonzales home but we were able to finish cleaning up the paint and yard at our Sloan storage house on Saturday. We extend a big thank you to Joseph Selem for leading our group of volunteers!
The extended weather forecast promises a lot more rain so a workday this Saturday looks doubtful. Please continue to follow us on Facebook for updates.
 
From the Fundraising Committee
We are working on creating an Erath County Habitat for Humanity signature fundraising event. There are some really exciting ideas. More on this as plans come together.
Thank you Studio 6:14 Dance for pledging to donate 10% of your tuition revenue for the months of April AND May to Erath County Habitat!
We welcome other Erath County Businesses to pledge their support as well. If you or your employer are interested in doing so, please send us an email atErathCountyHabitat@outlook.com. We will feature your pledge in our newsletter and on our webpage at ErathCountyHabitatforHumanity.org.
 
From the Public Relations Committee
ECHH has signed up to Adopt A Spot through Stephenville Parks And Recreation Department. Look for our sign along the Bosque River Trail! We look forward to working with SPARD and for putting action to our motto: “Together, we build better lives!”
We are also preparing a Builder’s Basket for Stephenville Optimist Club’s Fundraising Auction this Friday May 3rd. We love lending a hand in support of other Civic organizations! 
 
From the Gratitude Committee
This week we give thanks to a local church and memorial fund. Thank you for your contribution to helping make decent housing affordable and lives better.
Thank you to First Christian Church of Stephenville for their contribution of $700.
Thank you to the Birdie Hartsough Frey Memorial Fund for their contribution of $500.
As always, thank you to each volunteer that gives his/her time and labor to Erath County Habitat for Humanity. Thank you also for the positive words and testimonies you share in the community about Habitat and the difference we all make when we work together. We are blessed to call Erath County home and to build homes in this generous, edifying community!
