2009 Habitat for Humanity Blitz Build

Dan Ryan Builders is pleased to contribute to Habitat for Humanity of the Eastern Panhandle 2009 Blitz Build.

Martinsburg, WV - After almost two weeks of construction, members of Dan Ryan Builders, along with other businesses in the area will complete a new home for an area family in conjunction with Habitat for Humanity of the Eastern Panhandle. The home is being built at 303 Rothwell Avenue in Martinsburg, WV and the dedication will take place at Noon - 4pm on November 6th, 2009.

This year's home will be unique in that it will have many 'green' or environmentally friendly building features. Dan Ryan Builders, in keeping with their long history of giving back to the communities in which they do business, has elected to donate framing labor, house wrap, drywall installation and finishing, siding, fascia and aluminum wrap labor as well. Dan Ryan Builders employees also remained on site to assist with some decision making and to fill other small needs as they arose.

Although it has been said to be the worst housing slump since the Great Depression, Dan Ryan Builders made their largest contribution yet, to Habitat for Humanity of the Eastern Pan Handle because there is no bigger reward than to make an affordable home available to a very deserving family.

The selection process that Habitat for Humanity goes by to select a family was completed earlier this year. The homeowner will be Delilah Johnson and her two daughters, Stephanie and Olivia. Anyone can contact Habitat at 304.263.3154 if they are interested in applying to Habitat for Humanity for a home.
