At this time of year, our thoughts turn to those persons in our community who are struggling and who could greatly benefit from a hand-up.  With continued assistance from our community partners and successful fundraising, we will build two more homes in Brechin in 2012.  We sincerely thank all of those people in our communities who are supporting Habitat for Humanity Orillia/Lake Country in our efforts to build simple, decent homes for low- to moderate-income working families.  Habitat for Humanity Orillia/Lake Country may be building homes—but we are also building HOPE—hope in a brighter future for our partner families.  We wish you and yours a wonderful blessed Holiday Season and all of the very best for 2012!
