Community coming together for a great cause! 🧱✨
In Brandon, Florida, local volunteers are rolling up their sleeves to build affordable, disaster-resilient homes for families in need. This video takes you behind the scenes of Pope Leo Village, an exciting new 8-home project that is part of Habitat for Humanity’s larger 23-home Windhorst Commons development.
We highlight the incredible volunteers from Christ the King Church, who stepped up as the very first faith-based group to work on the site. Inspired by Pope Leo XIV’s enduring message of service and community, this initiative aims to encourage young people and locals to give back to their neighborhood.
The best part? Most of these volunteers had little to no construction experience before arriving! Thanks to Habitat for Humanity’s comprehensive on-site training, anyone can pick up a hammer and make a real difference.
