Simple, decent, affordable housing Spring 2015 Our Mission: Seeking to put God’s love in action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities, and hope. Women Build Week Dear friends, Ordinarily this is where you find a letter from Terry Woodruff. Sadly for us, Terry has recently resigned his position as Executive Director of Avery County Habitat for Humanity. Terry has been an integral part of our organization for 8 years and his tenure has included such achievements as overseeing the development of the Milford Meadows community and increasing our annual builds from one house per year to three houses per year. While many people will miss Terry, we the members of the Board are confident that ACHFH will continue to grow and build…in more ways than one. This winter we completed two homes — one for Jennie Jordan and her daughter in the Beech Mountain Community and one for the Hanick family in our Milford Meadows development. And perhaps by the time the trees start to show their leaves the Clark family will be settled in their new home in Milford Meadows, too. And speaking of new homes, we are excited to begin work on a new administrative HQ this spring. Our new location in Newland will be near our ReStore, more easily accessible, and will be situated in more of a central location in the county. We wish Terry the best and thank him for his service to our organization and our community. And, we thank you for your support of Habitat as well. Together we are changing lives in Avery County. Tom Allison, Board President Now in its eighth year, National Women Build Week challenges women to devote at least one day to help build affordable housing in their local communities. The week also spotlights the homeownership challenges faced by women. In recognition of National Women Build Week, Banner Elk Lowe’s employees will join with Avery County Habitat’s approximately 40 women volunteers on May 7th and 9th to work on the Farmer Family’s house. Lowe’s Home Improvement helped launch National Women Build Week in 2008 and each year provides the support of Lowe’s Heroes, a corporate volunteer initiative, and conducts how-to clinics in stores to teach volunteers some of the construction skills needed onsite. This year Lowe’s donated $1.75 million to National Women Build Week, including a $5,000 store gift card for Avery County Habitat for Humanity. This is part of a new fiveyear partnership with Habitat that will bring Lowe’s total contributions to more than $63 million since 2003.

Collegiate Challenge During the month of March, Avery County Habitat for Humanity hosts students from multiple colleges and universities during their Spring Breaks to help build homes for families in need of affordable housing. Collegiate Challenge, Habitat for Humanity’s National Alternative Spring Break program, invites students to spend one week working with Habitat affiliates to build homes and improve communities. Since it began in 1989, more than 230,000 college and high school students have volunteered during their Spring Break to help build or rehabilitate homes, donating nearly $24 million to Habitat affiliates nationwide. Typically, about 45 students come to Avery County Habitat each year to participate in Collegiate Challenge. In 2014 Avery County HfH hosted students from Boston College, Suffolk University, and The University of Maryland. This year we look forward to welcoming our fourth group from Suffolk University as well as new friends from the University of Connecticut. While they are here, the students work on different projects to help out including framing, insulating walls, installing floors, painting and even installing roof trusses! But it’s not all work: during their free time, the students take full advantage of the fun things our area has to offer such as visiting Grandfather Mountain, exploring Elk River Falls, and hiking to Wiseman’s View. “We are grateful to all of the students who have so graciously dedicated their Spring Break to helping others over the last 25 years,” said Mark Andrews, Habitat for Humanity International’s Vice President of Volunteer and Institutional Engagement. “Many families have been able to realize their dream of home ownership thanks to the Collegiate Challenge program.” The Collegiate Challenge program is one of the many programs Habitat has to engage the next generation of leaders in Habitat’s work. In addition to the ongoing support State Farm® offices provide to local Habitat affiliates across the United States, State Farm has served as the national corporate sponsor of Habitat for Humanity’s youth programs since 2007. If you wish to see additional photos of the students’ work or learn how you can be involved with future projects, please visit our Facebook page, email us at [email protected], or call us at (828) 733-1909. Recycle Wednesday, April 22 is Earth Day. There are lots of ways to help our environment and promote sustainability, but the most visible method is always recycling. It’s pretty obvious that the Habitat ReStore is a great way to give old items new life. In fact, we estimate that in 2014, our ReStore kept 207,241 pounds of material out of the landfill. That’s amazing! But did you ever think about recycling a whole house? During this past year we have had 3 homes become vacant in our Milford Meadows Community. To most people this could seem like a sticky situation, but for Avery County Habitat, it was just what we needed. Normally when we receive new partner families we work with them to plan for new construction of their home. But this year was a little different. When these 3 homes became vacant and available, we started receiving partner families that wanted existing homes that they could move into more quickly…what a great coincidence! The Clark family is staying in one of the homes while their new home is being built. When they move into their new home next month, another family wants to move into their current home in order to rent it until they are able to purchase it outright. The Clawson family is also renting an existing home until they are also able to purchase it themselves. And the third house? Roxanne Follensbee is renting to own as well. How’s THAT for recycling? New Partner Families The Brown Family: Richard and Teresa Brown were approved as a Habitat Partner Family last fall. They are currently living in a trailer with no running water, mold on the walls and walls that continue to buckle. Their new home will be a much safer place, with air quality no longer being a detriment to their health. Richard has worked at Avery Middle School for 4 years now. We welcome the Brown family to the Milford Meadows community! The Farmer Family: Bill Farmer and his thirteen– year-old daughter, Alexis, also have been recently approved as a Habitat Partner Family. Bill, who has worked at Sugar Top for almost two years, and Alexis currently live on his father’s land in two trailers put together where the roof leaks, the flooring is bad, and their electric bill is over $300 a month in the winter. The Farmers’ new home will drastically reduce these environmental concerns, being both System Vision and Energy Star certified. The home will be located in Newland on Squirrel Creek Road. NC State Support Organization State Employees Credit Union Habitat for Humanity of North Carolina is the state support organization for the 80 Habitat affiliates within “The Old North State.” Habitat’s state support offices serve affiliates through shared services, advocacy, fundraising, training, and operational support. North Carolina is one of the top three states for housing production in the U.S. Habitat for Humanity builds over 450 homes a year in NC! In North Carolina, at least half of our affiliates build System Vision energy-efficient certified homes. Assuring that the homes are energy efficient keeps utility expenses low for homeowners. In addition, one of the North Carolina affiliates recently built a home using as many "Made in the USA" products as possible, and we expect to see this as a trend across the state! On February 25, officials from the SECU Foundation and HfH NC signed an agreement structured to assist Habitat affiliates with the SECU Foundation challenge (“SECU Habitat Challenge”) of building and selling a home in each county of North Carolina over the next three years. “The SECU Habitat Challenge is a magnificent opportunity for Habitat affiliates across North Carolina and will be a catalyst for increasing their support for one another, and expanding our reach to unserved areas,” said HHNC Board Chair Bill Cooke. “We are excited, honored and humbled to partner with State Employees’ Credit Union members via their Foundation to provide homes for deserving families in all 100 counties of the State.” SECU Foundation Chair McKinley Wooten remarked, “SECU members are proud and excited to join Habitat for Humanity of North Carolina in their mission to create affordable homeownership opportunities for the citizens of our state. The SECU Habitat Challenge will provide a major boost to the efforts of Habitat supporters and volunteers, increasing HHNC’s capacity to help additional families obtain homes in many areas of North Carolina without current Habitat services.” 2014 Financial Contributions (Cont’d) Vann, Clifton and Maryalice Vuolo, Gabriel and Bonnie Walston, Joy Ward, James and Kathryn Weinsier, Arlene Welchel, Christopher Wells, David Wesson, Jim and Bethie White, Jeffrey and Laure White, Ronald and Patricia Whitfield, Brian Wiliams, John Williams, Mac Williamson, Allan and Cinda Williamson, Delbert and Barbara Williamson, Patricia Willis, Leah Wilson, Charlotte Wilson, Susan Winfield, H.G. and Dianne Winston, Paula Wise, Roger and Donna Woodruff, Terry and Adale Workman, M.A. Wright, Rosemarie Yancey, William and Wisch, Pat Yarbro Wholesale Yocum, Ezra Young, Patricia Zill, Roland and Madeline 2014 In-Kind Donations Tonya Adams Agnes Irwin School Jo-Anne Allison Appalachian Regional Healthcare System Arbor Dale Presbyterian Church Avery County Chamber of Commerce Avery County Democratic Women Avery County High School Carpentry Class Dr. and Mrs. Charles Baker Baker’s Plumbing Banner Elk Chamber of Commerce Banner Elk Comfort Makers Banner Elk Presbyterian Church Banner Elk United Methodist Church Baxter Healthcare Bella’s Italian Restaurant Blue Ridge Mountain Church Boston College Brinkley Hardware Ginny Burton Camp Linn Haven Carolina Barbeque Carolina Mountain Life Bill Cocke Covenant Presbyterian Church Crossnore First Baptist Church Crossnore Presbyterian Church Crossnore Town Hall Culpeper Presbyterian Church Down by the River Campground Dwight Franklin Electric Betty Erhart Erick’s Cheese & Wine Heidi Fisher Fletcher Presbyterian Church Grandfather Golf & Country Club Grandfather Mountain Greene Memorial United Methodist Church Heaton Christian Church HfH RV Care-A-Vanners Lees-McRae College Linville Falls Community Church Linville United Methodist Church Little Chapel on the Boardwalk, The Lowe’s Home Improvement Main Street Antiques, Elk Park Mayland Community CollegeAvery Campus Ruth McCloud McKinney Cove Baptist Media Presbyterian Church Mountaineer Garden Center, Banner Elk Mountaineer Landscaping and Flowers, Linville Mountainside Lutheran Church M-Prints Inc.
