We love working with Habitat both locally and internationally. There is a real sense of accomplishment with every build, and helping families is what it’s all about. Thanks for reading and commenting!

What an honor to hear from you. We received your poem at Thornybush Game Preserve. Someone left it on the bed when they cleaned the room. We immediately read it and loved it. So much applies to our experience in South Africa. Best wishes for continued success.

Thanks so much for taking the time to read and respond. It was a moving experience, one that is still ongoing, I hope. We all wanted to help this family — even to the point of moving in or doing something extra for the yard. Sometimes what comes along in our lives really touches us beyond belief.

Thanks for taking a look at one of our favorite – yet short-lived — Habitat projects. It remains dear to our hearts, and we are pretty sure much has been done after our evacuation. At least we were assured by the Global Village staff that the work would continue. Hoping for good things to come for that family — so deserving!

Fantastic and generous work Rusha. I haven’t been involved in a Habitat Project, but I have lived through a couple of African coups, and as an outsider, you can only keep a low profile and hope for the best. Sorry for the delayed project. Hopefully, it will be finished soon. ~James

I’d love to return also. There’s work to be done but also fun to be had. Hope to post more of the latter since the work was cut short! Thanks for commenting.
