GRAND RAPIDS, MI Martin and Nancy Yado have long dreamed of owning a home.
But the Grand Rapids couple faced financial challenges, and instead spent years raising their four children in apartments or while doubled up with family.
Often, it’s meant little room and no privacy. Once, when staying with Nancy’s parents, they shared a room with their two daughters, and the home had just one bathroom and little space for their children’s clothes, toys and other belongings.
