We were proud to present a check to Habitat for Humanity of Carroll County and spend time learning more about the incredible work happening right here in our community.
During our visit, we toured the Habitat ReStore—a nonprofit thrift store and donation center that sells new and gently used items at a fraction of their original cost. From appliances and furniture to building materials and electronics, every purchase helps support local families.
We also met up with Ken Deckelman, Construction Site Supervisor for Habitat and toured the site, where the Home Builders Care Foundation is partnering with Habitat for Humanity of Carroll County and The Arc of Carroll County to build two state-of-the-art, accessible, and affordable homes for individuals with developmental and intellectual disabilities.
It’s inspiring to see organizations come together to expand access to safe, inclusive housing and make a lasting impact.
