CONTRIBUTED

Erath County Habitat for Humanity put love into action this Valentine’s Day by breaking ground on their 21st home. The event was co-hosted by the Stephenville Chamber of Commerce and was well attended by Habitat Board Members, Habitat Building Partners, Community Supporters, and the new partner family, the Valdezes. 

Erath County Habitat for Humanity thanks all who could make it out to celebrate with us today. We also are thankful for those who could not be in attendance but continue to support our mission through donations of time, funds, lunches for workday volunteers, and your prayers.
