Habitat for Homes Quad Cities will dedicate a new home during a ceremony at 10 a.m. Saturday, April 25. The ceremony for Habitat Home No. 144 will take place at 1402 18th St., East Moline.
Visitors will have the opportunity to tour the home after the ceremony. This home was collaboratively funded by sponsorships from the Russell company, Case New Holland, Arconic, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, as well as grants from the Quad City Community Foundation and the Quad Cities Housing Council.
Habitat’s affordable homeownership program is a long-term solution to the current affordable housing crisis. Habitat partner families must complete a minimum of 250 volunteer hours of sweat equity and attend mandatory homeownership preparation classes with the support of a volunteer mentor. When their home build is finished, partner families purchase the home from Habitat with affordable monthly payments on a zero-interest mortgage.
Habitat for Humanity Quad Cities is dedicated to building thriving communities. For over 32 years, the local Habitat for Humanity affiliate has served low-income families with the construction of affordable homes. Habitat also operates a home repair program and an accessibility ramp program for low-income homeowners.
