Good morning team!
I received an exciting email from Habitat for Humanity in Braga today - the introduction of the partner family with whom we will be working in December!
Below is the text from the PDF I was sent, which I will pass along in an email to you as well.
Very exciting!
The Costa family – Gondizalves Project
The Costa family has five elements: António Alberto (38), Maria Manuela (40), Miguel (13), Bruna (11) e Joana (9) and they currently live in a house that belongs to a family member and is quite small. They live in this house for 17 years.
António works on a gas station and Maria is currently unemployed but she is taking a training course to become a hairdresser in the future and all three children are in school.
A few years ago the parents of Antonio gave the couple a piece of land where they started to build a house for their family. Unfortunately for financial reasons they were not able to finish it; and that is why they contacted Habitat.
During this project Habitat volunteers will work mainly on the interior of the house and the exterior painting.
Due to several family problems they have to leave the house as soon as they can. We are starting this project in November so they can spend Christmas on their new house and finally have a place they can call Home and raise their children safely.
This project that will ensure a better future for the Costa family where they will finally have their own house where they can raise their children and, most important, turn that house into a HOME!
