A New Year, A New Home For a Family In Need

Another holiday season is approaching and a new year is upon us. For many, this is a time of resolutions to make us better people. For others, it's another year struggling to provide a safe, affordable home for their family. For over 26 years, Habitat for Humanity of Greater Memphis' mission has been to help make these families' dreams of homeownership a reality.

Helping others is something we often think about during the holiday season but in the new year, how will you choose to make a difference in your community? By making a gift to Habitat for Humanity of Greater Memphis, you will help us continue our mission to end poverty housing in Memphis. Would you add another resolution to your list and support Habitat and its families? Remember, we're not only building new homes. We're building new lives and a new community! Thank you for your consideration of a gift and may you have a wonderful new year!

Remember, gifts made on or before December 31, 2009 are eligible for deduction for the 2009 tax year.

For questions regarding donations, please contact Shanda Wicker at 901.761.4771 ext. 204 or swicker@memphishabitat.com.
