Over the past few weeks, employees, clients, and friends of Sage Rutty have been volunteering with us and making great progress on 91 Silver Street!

​“I always had a passion for the community,” she said in a recent D&C interview. “I always had this passion of blending business practices and principles and social change.”

If you've been on one of our construction sites in the last 20+ years, you've probably built with our twin Site Supervisors, Edwin and Erwin - and they have helped tens of thousands of volunteers be part of the Habitat Family!

In recognition of their years of service and for the great volunteer experience that they provide, an anonymous donor came forward to sponsor 225 Campbell Street in their honor!

Check out the photos below to join us in saying Happy Birthday and expressing our entire community's gratitude for their amazing contribution to Flower City Habitat and the City of Rochester!

Simon Business School, which is part of the University of Rochester, partnered with Flower City Habitat for Humanity for their second annual "Framing Frenzy."

Students were also taken on a bus tour of the JOSANA Neighborhood, showing them where these two houses are being constructed, touring a finished Habitat home, and learning more about Flower City Habitat and our focus in the greater JOSANA Neighborhood. These two houses will be our 91st and 92nd new homes built within a half mile of School 17!
