A  hand up,  not a hand out. 

I realized how fortunate I am and growing up. I will remember a neighbor who received a house from Taos habitat for humanity thanking me for coming out and helping and that our help goes further then we think. It was just incredible to help make an impact...To explore a different community and also have the ability to help contribute in making a difference in someone’s life"

The wonderful people impacted by our volunteerism truly motivated me...I learned so much about building a home as well as valuable life lessons from experienced individuals who quickly became friends. It meant so much to me to see such a well deserving family have a forever home.  My time in Taos is something I will never forget. I am so thankful for the experience. Everyone was so nice and made myself and my team feel right at home"

It is such an honor to be a recipient of a Habitat house, I have gained so much confidence becoming a homeowner.  I also learned so many valuable lessons on the job site and take lots of pride in the work in did on my forever home.  My kids and I will never forget the impact this has made on our lives!"
