"Partnering with Habitat of McLean County to build a home for my family was the single most exciting, accomplished, humbling, thrilling, trying, faith building and joyous times of my life. From the incredibly giving people I met through the process to the strength I found in myself, I was blessed at every turn. My build occurred during a recession period of our US economy that some were saying would be like the Great Depression or worse. [I] saw people come together to help someone they didn't know because it was the right thing to do and because it brought them joy; I couldn't believe that the worst was coming [and] I was seeing the best in people. I'm so grateful for that experience as well as the home we built."
