Meet Candance.

Candace knows well the importance of having a home for developing family traditions.

Her greatest hope and dream is to have a place to call her own so that she can establish healthy, life-long traditions for and with her family.

Growing up, Candace witnessed the negative influence that home can have and followed in the path of self-destructive behaviors. Alcohol became her vice, one she worked hard to free herself from before starting a family. Candace is proud to be alcohol-free for 6 years and counting.

Candace’s most fond memories are of time spent at her grandparent’s home. Even though she will not be living in her grandparent’s home or on their land, 

Candance looks forward to owning her own home where she can create fond memories with her children. 

Doing science experiments, watching the stars in her backyard, or playing games are all part of the things she wants to share experience with her kids, creating those healthy traditions.
