On Tuesday, January 22nd,  the Sussex Housing Group (SHG) started a new partnership with Messick Development, SHG's next focus community. Messick Development has been chosen, through a competitive process, as the next focus community where SHG will pool its collective resources to address the community's challenges and embrace its opportunities.

SHG is a collaboration of non-profit, government and corporate organizations, including Sussex County Habitat for Humanity, committed to improving  housing, access to services, and community conditions in Sussex County. Members contribute many areas of expertise, and plan to address Messick Development's goals and objectives which include exterior and interior home improvements, street lighting district implementation, sidewalk construction, community education programs, and more.

The Magee and Estime families will purchase the homes marking the end of their remarkable journeys preparing for homeownership.    These homes were made affordable in part with generous grants from the Delaware State Housing Authority and Federal Home Loan Bank-Pittsburgh.    We wish to recognize and thank the hundreds of volunteers who unselfishly gave their time and skills to work side-by-side with these two Habitat partner families building their homes.    And, we wish to thank the City of Seaford and Sussex County for their cooperation, encouragement, and support.  

 

These homes highlight Sussex County Habitat's continuing commitment to revitalizing this neighborhood located in the Seaford Downtown Development District. Neighborhood revitalization unites residents, nonprofits, businesses, churches, and community organizations, as well as local, county, and state governments to implement a shared vision of for revitalizing neighborhoods in ways that are truly transformational.  When  investing in a specific neighborhood, our goals are to build momentum, engage residents, leverage resources, attract donors, and generate noticeable change to transform neighborhoods into vibrant, safe, and inviting places for current and future residents to live.
