First ever Habitat build in Waialua under way!

James and Tamako Vasconcellos have lived in their old home for 50 years raising all four of their children.  It will soon be torn down to make room for a simple, decent two-bedroom house.  The current structure "is so old and termite infested.  It's falling apart," says Tamako.  The new one will be "easier to maintain" and will be perfect for family gatherings, especially for their seven grandchildren!

Construction Completed on the Ha'o Site; Dedicated April 3rd!                     

Volunteer crews have finished the Ha'o family's two-story home in Papakolea.  Mahalo to all the groups and individuals who have come out to support this build!  We dedicated the home Saturday, April 3rd.
