It is with a heavy heart that we say goodbye to our dear friend and longtime ReStore volunteer Loren Johnson, Sr. who recently lost his battle with cancer. He was 77 years old. Those of us that knew Loren well, will remember him as an energetic and life-loving man. He retired at 62 and moved to Kaua'i from Homer, Alaska. In...
We are so excited to welcome the newest members of the Kaua'i Habitat 'ohana! Mary Regan, Joseph Burleigh and Karim Johnson have signed on to serve 10.5 months as AmeriCorps Service Members, building homes and hope with Kaua'i Habitat for Humanity. AmeriCorps is a national service program where members commit to improving lives and addressing critical community needs. On Kaua'i...
It's time to say "mahalo," but thankfully not "goodbye" to our AmeriCorps service member Mackenzie Hampson. Mackenzie has been with us since September of 2019 serving a 10.5 month term with AmeriCorps. During this time we noticed that she was an awesome Construction Crew Leader on our team. Mackenzie has helped build over 20 homes during her service term with...
Another beautiful week brings progress in the construction of affordable housing for the hardworking families on Kaua'i! Just this week we saw the walls go up on the future home of the Evans 'ohana, all while work was being done on three other lots in the subdivision. Construction Site Supervisor Robert Knowles worked alongside homebuyers, AmeriCorps service members and core volunteers...
We recently said “a hui hou” to our AmeriCorps service member, Mitch Myers. Mitch started his AmeriCorps service in Portland and continued with a second service term here at Kaua'i Habitat. For the last 10 months, Mitch proved himself to be an invaluable member of our construction team both in Anahola and at our ‘Ele’ele Iluna sites. Many homeowners and volunteers...
You have often heard us saying there are many ways to build homes and hope with Kaua'i Habitat without doing construction. It's true. Just look at Sandy Ambrose. Sandy has been volunteering with us for years, but you won't find her with a hammer in hand at the job site. Where you will find her is in the studio with...
Our Construction Supervisors, AmeriCorps Servicemembers, homeowners and core volunteers have been very busy making dreams come true this week. Yes, the dream of homoeownership is alive and well in our 'Ele'ele Iluna neighborhood, especially for future homebuyers Robert Williams and Zachary Kawai who are seeing the walls go up in their future homes. The day the walls go up is always...
The Kaua'i Board of Realtors have been longtime supporters of Kaua'i Habitat for Humanity and have done so much for us over the years. Well, they are still at it, and their experience sure shows! This past weekend they did an outstanding job at our Anahola jobsite. It was great to see the "pros" diving right into building stairs and...
We have been blessed once again to be visited by a volunteer group from Trinity Western University! Trinity Western is a private Christian liberal arts university in Langley, British Columbia, Canada. These amazing college students are being led by Allan and Sylvia Kotanen and have spent more than a week working on various construction projects in our 'Ele'ele Iluna subdivision....
Today we had to say farewell to one of our amazing AmeriCorps members, Maddi, who just completed her 10 1/2 months of service at Kaua'i Habitat for Humanity. AmeriCorps members donate their time helping others and addressing critical needs in the community. We are so grateful that Maddi helped us tackle the affordable housing crisis by working alongside our staff...
