Our nearly completed workshop was the perfect setting for a special Builders Circle Donor Society recognition event. The building reflects the impact of our work and stands as a testament to the generosity and partnership of the many donors and supporters—both those who joined us to celebrate and those whose contributions made it possible.

Assemblymember Didi Barrett joined us to honor two special guests, Ron Tanner and Stephen Phelps, for their dedication to making homeownership a reality for local families. Tanner has been a longtime supporter. Phelps was the Founding Director of Columbia County Habitat for Humanity in 1993 and was instrumental in building community support for Habitat’s mission in our area. Both have volunteered countless hours and generously shared their knowledge and resources.

Special thanks to Creekside Restaurant and Bar in Catskill for catering the event, Suarez Family Brewing for the beer, and Kristen Clark Bielefeldt for capturing the occasion through her excellent photography.

This beautiful, energy-efficient 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits in an established community of modest, ranch-style homes on Van Buren Ave. It is within walking distance of Kinderhook Lake and close to schools, restaurants, and shopping, with easy access to Albany and surrounding towns.

This home offers approximately 1,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, with lofted ceilings, central air, high-efficiency stainless-steel appliances, and modern style built for long-term affordability. The appraised value is $340,000, with a target sale price of $250,000 or less, depending on qualifications.

Columbia-Greene Habitat works alongside qualified applicants who need affordable housing and are ready to invest their time and skills in building their future. Questions? Connect with us: familyservices@cghfh.org
