What's Happening at Charlotte County Habitat for Humanity
Calling All Anglers! Habitat Has 2nd Annual Fishing Tournament
Every year Habitat for Humanity has seen an increase in the need for safe, decent and affordable housing in Charlotte County. The need has never been greater! Families are applying for the program everyday and as the need in our county increases the need for funding increases as well. It costs approximately $50,000 to purchase the necessary materials to build a habitat home. We are asking the community to step up their game and be a missionary in their home town. One way you can do this is to join in on some Habitat fun and be a part of our 2nd Annual “Hooked on Habitat” Fishing Tournament.
Calling all Anglers! On September 11 we will be hosting our 2nd Annual “Hooked on Habitat” Fishing Tournament. There’s going to be plenty of fun and great cash prizes! Fishermen will enjoy a crab boil and shrimp Creole dinner and an awesome auction/raffle at the captains meeting.  A few of the auction/raffle items are a black pearl cast net, hand held VHF radio, rod and real combos, an autographed artist edition painting by Guy Harvey and a chance to have an opportunity to attend a taping of Florida Insider Fishing Report (and maybe even be on the show!). There are plenty of more items as well as great cash prizes for the winners of the tournament! The captains meeting will be held at Laishley Park Community Room at 6:30pm Friday September 10th, all anglers are welcome! For more information about the tournament please call Flatsmasters at 941-637-5953. Cost to enter the tournament is $300.
For more information about how to get involved with Habitat for Humanity please call 941-639-3162

There’s Never Been a Better Time to be a Habitat Homeowner
“By the time I moved 13 times with my children I assumed I would never qualify for a home. At one point I felt like an unfit parent.” These were the words of Regina Georges, a single mother, who was working a full time job and having trouble making ends meet. “Habitat has given me, a mom of four wonderful kids, a chance to give my children a home and I am so thankful for that. Not only am I getting a brand new home, but I was educated on how to manage my finances and on how to care for my home. I saw my home being built from the ground up. Habitat has not just given me a home but they have accepted me into their family.”Like Regina there are many families in Charlotte County who feel the way she did before entering into the Habitat program. To all those who have thought about applying for a home through Habitat for Humanity but haven’t done so for one reason or another; there’s never been a better time than now.
Are you in need of a safe, decent and affordable home? Candidates should be willing to partner with Habitat as well as have the ability to make a mortgage payment; approximately $500.00 a month which includes taxes and insurance. Do you live in substandard housing? Is your rent more than 50% of your total income or your home overcrowded? Are you willing to partner with Habitat by participating in an honest and timely manner? Will you complete a minimum of 300 sweat equity hours and make a $1,000 down payment? Do you have verifiable income that is regular and frequent? Is your credit clean? If you answered yes, visit our website
www.charlottecountyhfh.org to learn how to become a Habitat Homeowner and come to our next home information meeting (dates can be found on our website) or call 941-639-3162 to speak with Laura Brown, Director of Family Services.
