Stoughton Family Ready to Move Into Habitat Home Saturday

Unfinished Rafters Against SkyHabitat for Humanity is an organization that is experienced in providing affordable homes for people in need of financial assistance. They took on a bigger challenge in the case of the Daxbergers from Stoughton, Massachusetts.

The Daxbergers have a son who is suffering from muscular dystrophy, so having an accessible house was  important to them. This project presented the challenge of providing accessibility as well as affordability.
