​Habitat Victoria is thrilled to celebrate the completion of its 24th home in Greater Victoria with single mom Erin and her two young children. Located in Central Saanich, this latest home is part of a newly developed subdivision made possible with land donated by Walking Stick Developments Inc. “We were extremely pleased to work with Habitat for Humanity on this project,” said Gary Lunn of Walking Stick Developments Inc. “Their organization does great work to support young families getting into housing. It would be fantastic to see more people and organizations partner with them in this way.”

Erin and her family moved into their new home over the weekend, Erin shared “My family is so overjoyed at the opportunity to own our home. My children are so excited, we drove by our new house every day we could! Our current landlords were planning to provide us with notice to end our tenancy, forcing us to move again. I dreamed of a place where my children would have their own rooms, where we would not have to worry about the home being sold and forcing us to move again…and a place that we can proudly call our own.”

Mayor of Central Saanich, Ryan Windsor added: “It’s great to see a second successful Habitat for Humanity house built in Central Saanich. We welcome this latest family to the community. We look forward to future collaborations that bring additional Habitat houses for families to the community”.
 
“COVID-19 has continued to shine a light on the acute need for more affordable housing here in Victoria,” said Yolanda Meijer, CEO Habitat Victoria. “Finding something affordable is a huge challenge for many families, who often have to settle for something unsafe or inadequate because of budget constraints. We hope that more builders will reach out to partner with Habitat and help provide local families with access to our unique, affordable homeownership program.”
