Franktown UMC has hosted many Church and school groups over the years providing them with a place to stay while they help our local Habitat For Humanity build affordable housing for those in need. If you have a group who is interested in volunteering for E.S. Habitat for Humanity, contact Cheryl Nottingham at cnottingham2@verizon.net.
"Eastern Shore of Virginia Habitat for Humanity has been committed to its mission of providing safe, efficient home ownership for those citizens in substandard housing on the Eastern Shore. Since its incorporation in 1988, Habitat has completed and dedicated more than 40 homes in Northampton and Accomack counties. They are now occupied by families who are working and able to make a small monthly mortgage payment, which is INTEREST-FREE.
Each family is partnered with a support person who works with them on financial management, nutrition, health and parenting issues. A system of workshops in coordination with the Virginia Extension Service helps educate the families about home maintenance and financial planning. These are given each year." - http://www.easternshorehabitat.org
