Letter from the Executive Director
"I believe wholeheartedly that a Kent County where everyone has a decent place to live is possible, and I believe just as strongly that it will take all of us. However you came to Habitat Kent, I hope you know the work would not be possible without you."
Supporter Spotlight: Gary Ludema
When Gary Ludema visited his financial advisor prior to retirement he thought he was just going in for a check-up. After a long career, the Amway engineer knew he had worked hard and had been greatly blessed, but he didn’t have a specific answer when his advisor asked him what he planned to “do” next.
“That’s when he asked me if I had heard about Habitat,” said Gary.
