Habitat would like to introduce you to Lealie Russ, the first homebuyer in King William. Ms. Russ grew up in King William and works in Walkerton. She is excited to be purchasing Habitat's W. River lot and is looking forward to not having to walk up a flight of stairs to get into her apartment.

Running Water

This picture may not look like much, but this is a beautiful sight to a family who previously had no running water. Thanks to our repair program, this homeowner is grateful to be able to use the bathroom now without having to fill buckets to flush the toilet. Angel said her greatest wish was to be able to take a shower! It’s the little things that we take for granted sometimes.
