Like Habitat’s home ownership program, there are requirements for A Brush With Kindness. Applicants must own and occupy their home, have homeowner’s insurance, be current on property taxes, and meet income guidelines. You can learn more about the program or apply for ABWK services, by visiting the Neighborhood Revitalization Initiative section of Habitat’s website at http://www.ashevillehabitat.org/NRI/ABWK.
As with new construction, A Brush With Kindness projects will rely heavily on volunteers, sponsors and partners. There are many ways for the community to get involved. Businesses, churches and other groups can sign on as ABWK sponsors and volunteers. Projects usually run just 1-3 days and cost as little as $1,000 to sponsor. For more information about sponsorship opportunities, please call Betsy Warren at 210-9363 or email bwarren@ashevillehabitat.org.
If you’re an individual looking to volunteer on an ABWK project, please send an email to volunteer@ashevillehabitat.org or call 251-5702.
