LCAR is consistently the presenting sponsor each year in AOHFH’s fundraising efforts to build more homes, communities and hope. Its consistent sponsorship has helped build Habitat Homes No. 65 through 71 in the past. AOHFH said it appreciates LCAR for its partnership, as it continues to be valuable to the organization. To partner with AOHFH to help sponsor a home, join in the 2022-23 Capital Campaign Drive to help build affordable homes for partner families. AOHFH’s partner families work hard to save a down payment, volunteer 500 hours to work on other homes and their own, complete home ownership and financial classes and make a no-interest mortgage payment, which is recycled to help build more homes.
