FINDLAY, OH (WLIO) - Two Findlay families are closer than ever to making their homeowner dreams a reality!
Habitat for Humanity of Findlay/Hancock County raised the walls for homes numbers 60 and 61 for the Butler and McMaster Families. The walls raised will eventually become 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom, 1100-square-foot houses that will be constructed in just 10 weeks. At the ceremony, we talked with the McMaster family about the excitement and emotions they are feeling about seeing their home being built.
"The journey has been really cool, and I appreciate the process... but when that comes to fruition, I just... nothing but gratitude, right? All I have is a hallelujah because this seriously means so much to my whole family and generations that come after my family, and we're grateful... we're grateful," says Tiffany McMaster, who raised walls for her new home.
While some may see these walls as a piece of wood, these walls symbolize the hard work and obstacles the McMaster and Butler families have conquered.

"Our families have had to overcome many barriers as many of our families in our community are encountering increased rent. Debt builds up because you're just trying to make ends meet, and our families have been working so hard. Finally, after all that work and getting ready, there's a whole lot of getting ready to get ready, and tonight, it starts," says Wendy McCormick, Executive Director, Habitat for Humanity of Findlay/Hancock County.
Both of these houses are the first two of 20 to be built by Habitat for Humanity Findlay in the Krystal Ridge Addition Neighborhood.
