Hello, I’m Kim Davila, the new Board President of Mecosta County Habitat for Humanity. I was born and raised in Mecosta County, and my love for our community continues to grow. I was introduced to the Mecosta County Habitat five years ago by a fellow board member and co-worker. I learned early on that Mecosta County Habitat was the perfect fit for me, not only because I have made my passion for helping people reach their financial goals my career, but Habitat’s Vision Statement “A world where everyone has a decent place to live” resonates with my values. Earlier this year, a friend of mine had a Habitat Family move into the same sub division he lives in. He mentioned that Habitat should help a couple more families move into this area. He told me that the family has brought young life back into the neighborhood; riding bikes, playing basketball, and bringing the exterior of the home back to its former glory. Becoming a homeowner through Habitat for Humanity is a partnership opportunity to invest in community families. Hearing a friend’s testimony makes me even more proud to be a part of MCHFH. MCHFH offers a wide variety of programs that give people a decent place to live which truly makes a difference in the community. I never knew how many programs were offered until I became involved with MCHFH. One of which programs benefiting Veterans. As someone who has Veteran family members and friends, it is truly rewarding to take part in a program that gives back to our Veterans who have done so much for us. It is a privilege to represent the MCHFH board alongside Barb, Lisa, and Brenda. I look forward to working with our current and future families in our Home Ownership Program as well as the continued growth of our Critical Home Repair Program and ReStore.
