Cheers to our third annual Giving Societies Breakfast! Home means something to everyone. As Habitat homeowner Adrienne shared, "the difference [in becoming a homeowner] is day and night." Thanks to our supporters, Adrienne now has a home that provides in-unit laundry, enough kitchen cabinets, space to work from home as well as great peace, joy and comfort. Thank you again to our Giving Societies and check out our Flickr album for more photos from the event: https://lnkd.in/em2syXKw

On Thursday, September 12, Governor Josh Shapiro signed an executive order calling for the creation of Pennsylvania's first comprehensive Housing Action Plan. In support of this exciting announcement, CEO Corinne O'Connell said: "Habitat Philadelphia applauds Governor Shapiro's call to create Pennsylvania's first comprehensive Housing Action Plan, and we support the full continuum of attainable, affordable housing – which must include creating new homeownership as well as transitional, rental and preservation of existing stock. Investing in these solutions – especially for the state's lowest-income households – is the foundation for individual health and security, neighborhood stability and economic growth. Habitat Philadelphia is seasoned, proven and ready to build alongside all who support this audacious vision."

It's the #firstdayofschool here in Philadelphia! Wishing all students, families, teachers and administrators a great year! Safe, stable homes are fundamental to successful educational outcomes. According to Children's HealthWatch, kids who experience housing insecurity are less likely to reach their full potential. Let's focus on meeting student needs in the classroom and at home by increasing access to affordable homeownership and critical home repairs -- allowing families to make greater investments in their children's education.
