Homeowner 

Ashley, a single working mother, has aspired to own a home for many years. However, continued health problems that began during her pregnancy caused that dream to be put on hold. Since 2018, she has endured 2 open heart surgeries and life-threatening complications that continue to this day which require help from her family to care for her young daughter. This Habitat home will provide Ashley and her family security and comfort as she manages her health issues.
