A Habitat home dedication is a celebration held at the conclusion of the build – before the family moves into their new home. At the home dedication, we recognize all the hard work of the family, volunteers, and supporters. There is a ribbon cutting, prayers, a symbolic key presentation, and a tour of the home. Hear from the homebuyer about how much the journey with Habitat has meant and share in this special celebration. All are welcome! We hope you can join us for this memorable celebration of the Cardinal Build home.
