Dedication celebrates a new home for local family

image
Over 80 people gathered to celebrate the hard work, the generous financial backing and the community support that made this home possible. Homebuyer, Karen Hildebrandt is more than just a little eager to move into her new home. She has completed 200 hours of “sweat equity” helping to build the home, a basic tenet of Habitat for Humanity.

Six businesses combined efforts to sponsor the 26th Habitat home located in Douglas County: Alexandria Extrusion, Bremer Bank, Douglas Machine, Pro-Tainer, Quick Attach and Tastefully Simple donated funds totaling nearly $40,000. Habitat also recognized the 14 businesses that provided in-kind donations.
