Greater Springfield Habitat for Humanity
@gshfh.bsky.social
Greater Springfield Habitat for Humanity is a unique and phenomenal organization. It's run by a tiny staff of 5 people, and the dedication of countless volunteers to make homeownership affordable to limited-income families. habitatspringfield.org
Today, on #PurpleHeartDay, we pause to honor the brave men and women who were wounded or gave their lives in service to our country.

We are proud to support our veterans — including Purple Heart recipients — through safe, affordable housing, and a community that cares.

Despite temperatures soaring into the high 80s, these dedicated volunteers rolled up their sleeves and got to work removing old siding from the home of one of our partner families. Your energy, teamwork, and sweat (lots of it!) are helping lay the foundation for a brighter future for a local family.
