Since 1983, Habitat for Humanity of Greater Memphis has served more than 430 local families through its new home ownership program. In 2012, Memphis Habitat expanded its mission and launched its Neighborhood Revitalization Initiative in the Uptown neighborhood near downtown Memphis. The affiliate will build 50 new homes and complete 100 critical repair projects in Uptown, and to date, 26 new homes have been built and work has been completed on more than 75 commercial and historic properties and single-family homes.
Beginning this fall, we are turning our attention to a new neighborhood, Ruby Estates, located at Holmes and Weaver. We plan to build 54 new homes in this area with the first seven slated for construction this fall. St. Luke's contribution to this year's build will allow us to turn an abandoned lot, which often invites crime and other unwanted activity, into a neighborhood asset and a home for a deserving family.
St. Luke has two Saturday work days this year:
September 26, 2015
Roofing & Framing
Begin siding
October 10, 2015
Siding
Interior/Exterior painting
We will have a representative from Habitat at both services on September 20. They will also be available during the Sunday School hour to answer any questions you may have.
If you have any questions, please contact John Wadovick.
