On , one-year-old Vivian got to stand on the spot where her mom and dad are building their family’s foundation. 🪏This is our 20th new construction home of the build season, the place where James and Jasmine will see their hard work build generational wealth through affordable homeownership and a 0% interest mortgage, the place where they'll open doors of opportunity for themselves and their little Vivian.

Our Habitat team has a lot in common with the Cleveland Guardians—we both spend every day trying to bring people home! ⚾️ When Game 3 got moved to 1 p.m. to beat the rain, our team moved its afternoon accordingly. Laptops open, let’s go, Guardians!

What does HOME mean to you? 🏡 We asked these kids and their answers say it all.

As Casey's Furniture closes its doors after 63 years, we want to share how this family business looked out for families. 🛋️

For years, when the Casey's crew delivered a new couch to your house, they would often haul the old one out and bring it to Habitat ReStore, Canton if it still had good years in it. They brought discontinued pieces from their showroom floor, too. Their generosity in taking that extra step helped us build more homes, keep items out of landfills, and furnish living rooms across our community. That's more than six decades of caring for our neighbors, and it's a legacy worth celebrating.

To the Casey family: thank you for being such good neighbors for so long, and congratulations on a well-earned retirement. Enjoy every moment!

Casey's Furniture, which dates back to 1963, has announced it is closing its Jackson Township store. The owners are retiring.

It's pure joy when Habitat kids get to see the homes their parents built for the first time—their rooms, the spaces where they'll grow and make memories, and the doors they'll open every day. 🔑 That joy is what this year's was about: 2 families, 2 homes, and more than 20 of our Christian, Jewish, and Muslim faith partners who showed up to !

2 families, 2 homes, 1 inspiring community of faith in action! 🔑 Last night, we passed the keys and we counted the blessings of home with over 20 of our Christian, Jewish, and Muslim faith partners who joined us for this year's .

Our second house is rolling right along with a fresh coat of paint thanks to our friends at the Canton Culture Collective! 🎨🫟✨

These inspiring women spent a day working side by side with future homeowner Imani, and we're so grateful for the way they show up for one another to build a stronger community and the kind of sisterhood that changes lives. !

Some of our team joined our friends at Temple Israel Canton to build a different kind of shelter: a sukkah, for the Jewish holiday of Sukkot, which begins tonight at sundown. The sukkah recalls the temporary shelters the Israelites lived in during their 40 years in the desert. We're grateful we could help because at Habitat, we know that building together, no matter the structure, creates connections, relationships, and a stronger sense of community. Shabbat shalom and chag sameach!

Hard hat? Check. Little Jaya is ready to build!👷‍♀️ We recently dug our 17th new construction home of the build season, and this one belongs to Jaya and her mom, Taylor. Soon, this will be the place where Taylor builds stability through affordable homeownership and a 0% interest mortgage, the place where Jaya grows up with room to dream.

🏌️‍♀️⛳️🏌️‍♂️ For 23 years, the R.C. and Tim Miller Memorial Golf Outing has been more than a tournament—it’s a tradition of community and generosity. Hosted at Great Trail Golf Course, every swing helps us build more affordable homes with more local families. Huge thanks to every sponsor and golfer for helping us “drive” change, one home at a time!
