PRLog - Sep. 18, 2014 - BONITA SPRINGS, Fla. -- Thirteen enthusiastic Ted Todd Insurance Agency employees from all four of its Southwest Florida offices volunteered recently to paint the interior of a home on Katherine Street in Fort Myers for Habitat for Humanity of Lee and Hendry Counties. They worked side-by-side with a Habitat family to brighten and freshen a four bedroom, two bathroom house for another deserving family.

Employee organizers Ashley Jennings and Tonia Maples enlisted the help of teammates Lisa Chenoweth, Lyndsey Johannesen, Tina Gadue, Claudete Goldey, Tannya Gonzalez, Jodi Marturano, Kim Mastrole, Carlos Miranda, Ana Paulina-Estrella, Patrick Siefert, and Danny Trejo for the day. They also provided water, food and snacks to keep the volunteers refreshed and hydrated.

"Working alongside a Mom and her two teenage sons who were so deeply appreciative for what Habitat for Humanity has done for them was so empowering," said Ashley Jennings, office manager at the Estero office. "They demonstrated a wonderful 'can-do' spirit that made us all proud to be a part of helping provide clean, affordable housing for even just one family."

About Habitat for Humanity of Lee and Hendry Counties

Habitat for Humanity of Lee and Hendry Counties http://habitat4humanity.org/ is one of the largest Habitat affiliates in the country and has helped more than 1,280 families in Lee and Hendry counties become homeowners. Habitat homes are built through the use of volunteer labor and donations of money and materials. The homes are then sold to low-income families with an interest-free mortgage and monthly payments set at 30% or less of the homeowner’s income, making homeownership affordable. Habitat homeowners must qualify financially for the program, save $1,700 toward their closing costs, attend classes on successful homeownership, budgeting and home maintenance, and complete 300 hours of “sweat equity” by volunteering at Habitat. It also supports Habitat for Humanity International by tithing a portion of its proceeds, allocated to Habitat’s global fund, disaster recovery in Haiti and initiatives in Latin America and the Caribbean.
