Thirty homes were completed in the Summer and Fall of
2006. To complete the pre-Katrina vision of building 40 homes,
ten more homes will be built in the spring of 2007.
Our approach in improving 300 units per year will be divided
into two groups – secure funding and coordinate the
volunteer workforce for the construction of sixty (60) Habitat
for Humanity units (20%) and offer technical support (through
assistance in permitting, contracting, etc.) for two hundred
forty (240) units (80%) per year. We are in the process
of securing funding for the three-hundred units we plan to
construct and are in the process of coordinating the teams
of construction volunteers. |
