Two More Homes Added to the Stevens Creek Subdivision After Blitz Build
More than 500 volunteers helped build two Habitat for Humanity of Pinellas homes in a week at the Stevens Creek subdivision.
Rashidat Okuboye and Kimberley Moore are the latest Habitat for Humanity of Pinellas homeowners.
It took about a week, but with the help of more than 500 volunteers two homes were built in the Stevens Creek subdivision as part of the the non-profit's Blitz Build event.
Okuboye is a cancer survivor with a four year old daughter. As part of the ownership process, homeowners also help with the construction.
