“I love my new home! I can plant a garden, hang photos and come home and relax with no worries. I used to live in a one-bedroom house that was very small and a neighborhood that was not very safe. The rent increased from $275 six years ago to $650 per month, and I had to buy my own appliances. Now, I can breathe more easily and feel that my son is safe. I don’t have much, but I have my son, our health and our home. That’s all we need to be happy.”

“I am so happy to be a homeowner thanks to the Empowerment Alliance. My new house is safe and strong, and it belongs to me and my family. I have much more space inside and out for my children to play and run, and I can have small gatherings with family and friends. Before, we lived in a trailer, and we never knew if a storm would destroy everything we had.”
