We are building a home in honor of Pope Francis! In May, Habitat CFC, along with Mayor Finch and other community leaders, broke ground for construction to begin on 51 George Street in Bridgeport. The completed house will be purchased by Marlon Zepeda and his family.
The Pope Francis House is partially sponsored by an anonymous donor who has been inspired by Pope Francis'dedication to economic justice, equality and peace. The donor and Habitat CFC hope to inspire others by inviting volunteers from local churches and schools to participate in not only the construction of this home, but also help with the remaining financial support necessary to complete the build. By building this house, we are making it possible for the Zepeda family to purchase an affordable home and are further assisting with our efforts to revitalize Bridgeport neighborhoods!
