Habitat for Humanity of Craven County repairs owner-occupied homes through the Neighborhood Revitalization program.
The purpose of the program is to improve the quality of life with residents who are existing homeowners through varied approaches including: critical home repair, storm recovery and resiliency and aging in place for seniors.
“Duffyfield is a community full of culture and history, said neighborhood revitalization Director Antoinette Boskey-Chadwick in a news release. We recognize the importance of investing in this community” “We have worked in this community for more than 30 years and we are not leaving anytime soon.”
Evelyn Dawson’s home needed updated flooring and cabinetry repair so she can age comfortably in place. The repair was completed with 11 volunteers giving more than 300 hours of volunteer labor. This work would not have been possible without our Purple 1 AmeriCorps NCCC Team and our AmeriCorps National members.
