BUILD UPDATE: Phase 4 Complete! After many months of hard work, four more Habitat partner families will experience their first spring as homeowners, having just moved into their townhouses on Government Street in Burnaby. On November 29, 2008, volunteers, donors, staff and sponsors of Habitat for Humanity Greater Vancouver gathered together at the Dedication Ceremony to present the families with the keys to their new homes. The Burnaby build is now more than halfway to completion with 16 families and 32 children living in the community. Volunteers are already hard at work building the Phase 5 townhomes in partnership with five more deserving Habitat partner families.
