Congratulations to Marie and her son, Xavier! Their friends and family, along with Habitat staff, board members, local officials, and community members, gathered to celebrate their special milestone!
✨ Marie and Xavier opened the door to their Habitat house on the East Side of Bridgeport! 🏠💙
This moment was a complete surprise for Xavier; he discovered for the first time that his mom went through the entire process to make his dream of having a backyard and bedroom a reality! It started off emotional for him, but he quickly began planning what color to paint the walls and how to set up his new room!
Marie said, “I never thought I would be able to afford my own home, especially in Connecticut. This will change my life in more ways than I can imagine. Most importantly, it gives stability. I won’t have to worry about rent increases or whether I can renew my lease next year. It gives me peace of mind knowing I have complete control.”
We are thrilled for this new beginning for Marie and Xavier as they turn this house into a home. The future is looking bright thanks to Marie’s commitment to partnering with us and her determination to become a first-time homeowner!
