North Brookfield Savings Bank has partnered with Habitat for Humanity MetroWest/Greater Worcester to Sponsor a Home Build Day. Located on Sunderland Road in Worcester, MA these homes are two side-by-side, single-family homes being built by volunteers to benefit local families in need.
Habitat for Humanity builds decent and affordable homes around the world in partnership with families in need of a decent place to live. Habitat homebuyers help build their own homes alongside volunteers and pay an affordable mortgage. Affordable homeownership helps create the conditions that free families from stress and fear, helping build stability and confidence. Studies show that strong and stable households are foundational to child development and growth. When a home fosters — instead of hinders — health and safety, families can flourish. Owning an affordable home also allows homeowners to lift up their entire family by saving for their futures and investing in educational opportunities — bolstering job opportunities and long-term career growth.
NBSB is proud to have partnered with Habitat for Humanity on this project to make a difference in the local community. NBSB is always looking for ways to give back, and partnering with Habitat for Humanity was a perfect fit to help make a meaningful impact in the lives of local families. The home build project is a testament to NBSB’s commitment to making our community a better and more inclusive place for everyone.
“We feel privileged to have been able to partner with Habitat for Humanity for NBSB’s first-ever build project. We believe in the importance of giving back to our communities and are honored to be able to partner with such a reputable organization.,” said Nicole Syriac, Marketing Representative at NBSB. ” This project not only uplifts those in need, but it also serves as a reminder of the power of unity and kindness.”
