Air Force Veteran Keith McCall has lived long enough to know life’s richest rewards come to those who wait.
That something is about to be big in the form of the American Dream: a home of his own.
For a long time, McCall’s goal of homeownership was in question after a medical condition left him disabled and unable to earn the money needed to buy a home. “We’re a hand up not a handout,” said Courtney Rouse-Heinz, the Executive Director of Habitat for Humanity in our area. “Mr. Mccall will have a mortgage he’ll pay on for the next 30 years, but what we’re able to do is make it a little more affordable.”With the price of building materials surging, Habitat for Humanity says it will cost at least $45,000 more to turn these plans into reality. Despite the cost, Rouse-Heinz says it’s worth it.
