![Nonprofit, for-profit developers request public funds to renovate Wichita public housing units](https://img3.findglocal.com/000/225/888277870002258.jpg)
Wichita Habitat for Humanity wants to buy and rehabilitate 16 of the public housing units in northeast Wichita to offer for homeownership. The nonprofit offers 0% interest mortgages to low-income families who live in unaffordable, overcrowded or dilapidated housing.
Program director Laurie Walker said Habitat homebuyers pay on average about $650 a month for their mortgage, property and insurance. Walker added that Habitat plans to take the houses “down to the studs”: undergoing asbestos abatement, demolishing existing drywall, and replacing cabinets and flooring. The house will get new doors and windows, and water or termite damage will be addressed.
“Our vision is to transform this entire block,” Walker said. “Not just come in and put the paint on it. We want the whole block to feel new. … So we're really focusing on making sure these homes look beautiful for the street.”
Habitat also has 24 buyers who have already applied to buy a home through its program – “so we already know who we would be serving,” said Danielle Johnson, Habitat’s executive director.

It's more than just fundraising. Service for Change is about making an impact in the community and this year, 16 local businesses have joined forces to build a stronger Wichita by raising $100,000 to help build a home for a local family with Wichita Habitat for Humanity.
By supporting the events and initiatives or even donating, you can help tackle this goal and create lasting change. Learn more and support at wichitahabitat.org/s4c.

Chalisa has helped clean at least a dozen homes for her fellow homebuyers, so it was especially fun to have her as part of this Clean Team for her OWN home! She joined us on July 31 putting a shine and finishing touches to the house with Heidi, Tracy, Jessica, Nicholas, Alexis, and Victoria in preparation for her home dedication ceremony in the coming weeks!
All three Air Capital Build homes have now been cleaned and are ready to be purchased by our homebuyers and we would like to give a special thanks to Ann Fox for leading our Clean Team during those three days. Once again, thanks Clean Team! 🏠✨

Remember that eye-catching frame of a house with all those painted toads at Wichita Riverfest this year? You already know -- it's already being constructed at a future site of a Wichita Habitat home! However, we heard rumors that our future homebuyer fell in love with one of the toad-ally awesome designs (that Brickmob and you all painted) so much, so it might be making an appearance inside the finish house!
Want to find out for sure and help build this special home? We'd love to have you volunteer at our home builds. Get a firsthand look at the magic of Wichita Habitat and help make the dream of homeownership a reality for deserving families in Sedgwick County.
