Greetings! Our idea of a Happy Spring is dedicating a new Habitat for Humanity home!
On Sunday, March 18th, we dedicated our 75th new Habitat home on Cape Cod. It was a beautiful day filled with volunteers, members of the Federated Church of Orleans, and friends and family of the homeowners, Christina and Chloe Macort.
I hope you saw the wonderful article in the Cape Cod Times about Christina and Chloe and, if you weren't able to join us in person on Sunday, you can share in their happiness by reading about their experiences.
And please take a look at our upcoming events and consider joining us at one of them soon.
Warmly, Vicki Goldsmith
