Old Colony Habitat for Humanity introduces new recipient family

Norton, MA The Creeden family is the next recipient of an Old Colony Habitat for Humanity home at 16 Ridge Rd. Joining hands with volunteers and the community, Old Colony Habitat for Humanity anticipates building not just a house but a home filled with hope, love, and shared dreams.

The Creeden family, consisting of Elyse and her children Nico and Sage and dog Tucker, embodies the spirit of resilience and determination. Elyse and her children are looking forward to participating in helping to build their first-ever home. Habitat for Humanity is proud to partner with them on this journey, working side by side with dedicated volunteers and the supportive community to construct a foundation for a brighter future.

Elyse said, “I am part of the Old Colony Habitat family build in Norton, Massachusetts. This property in Norton is our soon-to-be home and my family and I are very excited about it. I’m so unbelievably grateful to be here with my Habitat family and I look forward to building my home with my family, volunteers and joining the Norton community.”

Kim Thomas, CEO said, “As we embark on this collaborative effort, we invite everyone to be part of this transformative experience. Together, we can build more than walls; we can build a stronger, united community.”
