Hey guys you may remember that last year I partnered with Habitat for Humanity and had an amazing experience. This year was just the same. I returned to partner with them again and it felt so good! I was 1 of 2 influencers that was invited out to see the kick off build last Thursday, it was such a heartfelt experience.
I got to meet the lucky homeowner Krushetta and her lovely family and guess what? Builders and Tv Personalities Drew and Jonathan Scott from the (Property Brothers from HGTV) were in the house and they were so much fun to hang out with, omg!
After watching everything take place and getting to know Krushetta, I was very excited for her. She’s setting a great example for her kids. I feel that it’s so important to have strong women who build these homes and it gives them a great sense of pride! Check out all the fun photos I snapped and more information on how you can get involved too inside….
