Habitat for Humanity of Kitsap County announces the ground breaking of its first rehab home project. Typically, Kitsap Habitat builds new homes for families that are accepted into its home ownership program. A generous family donated the home to Kitsap Habitat with the intention of rehabbing the home for a Habitat Family. This is a significant milestone for the local Habitat affiliate as it hopes to purse and rehab more homes in the future, and serve more families in the Kitsap County area.

Habitat is also busy in other areas of the county. The Cornerstone Place project in East Bremerton off of Sylvan Way is nearing completion. This is Habitat’s second multi-family home development and consists of eleven homes. Its New Hope Development was completed in 2009 housing 18 families. Another single Habitat home is having the finishing touches put on in Suquamish. Other future projects include six new homes in Bay Vista with ground breaking scheduled for Summer/Fall.
