MARANA, Ariz. — Each year, Giving Tuesday inspires people to take action on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. There are many different ways to show generosity this year and one local nonprofit is using this year to provide additional affordable housing in Marana.
These homes have been a labor of love and 12 already selected eager families will get the chance to purchase an affordable home, making their monthly mortgage around $1,000. “Certainly when they stand shoulder to shoulder next to other volunteers we put our differences aside and come around for a common cause that people matter," said Charlie Buchanan, CEO of Tucson Habitat of Humanity."We treasure the importance of home here at Habitat and volunteers get to experience that.”
