This symbolic donation makes the perfect gift for any occasion. Share a truly thoughtful gift with that someone special.
Marcy, a single mother with a 1-year-old daughter, applied for Habitat’s homeownership program in 1996. She had a car and a low-paying job at a child development center, but no place to live. Marcy is a veteran, but she didn’t have a college degree that could help her obtain a better job. She heard about Habitat while staying at a homeless shelter. When Marcy’s family was among those selected to participate in the Habitat homeownership program, she knew that things would be different. “From that point on, my life had changed,” Marcy says."
Please note that the seller will email the donation certificate to the email address associated with your eBay account.
