HBA Celebrates Dedication of its 25th Habitat for Humanity Home, Fundraising For Future Homes Begins, November 17, 2023
The HBA is proud to announce the dedication of its 25th Habitat for Humanity home!
We invite you to help the HBA raise funds for its next Habitat home by contributing to the construction fund. All contributions made here will be allocated to the HBA sponsorship of Houston Habitat for Humanity. Since 1998, the Houston Bar Association has partnered with Houston Habitat for Humanity to provide houses for deserving local families. The HBA is their longest-running sponsor.
25 Years and Going Strong - HBA Dedicates its 24th Habitat for Humanity House, June 27, 2023
The HBA joined Houston Habitat for Humanity to welcome home the family of its 24th Habitat House with a home dedication ceremony, generously sponsored by the Houston Bar Association Auxiliary (HBAA).
Single mom Zipora works for Amazon and has three sons and an adult daughter who recently graduated from UHD. Zipora came to the U.S. from Rwanda to give her children a better future. HBA past president Bill Kroger and his wife Elizabeth Mata Kroger enjoyed welcoming the family to their home and presented them with gifts for their new home.
Watch the heartwarming home dedication ceremony of our 24th Habitat House (Video below).
