The Silo Square in Southaven is the home of the 14th Annual HomeRun For Habitat 5k – KidsDash – Fall Fest. This event has become the largest of its kind in NW Mississippi with over 9500 participants raising over $380,000 for the Hernando DeSoto Affiliate of Habitat for Humanity.
The success of the HomeRun for Habitat depends on community participation and sponsorship. Habitat for Humanity needs your help. Once again, their goal is to raise $60,000 to help build ONE HOME. Habitat for Humanity’s vision is a world where everyone has a decent place to live. The Hernando DeSoto chapter selects deserving families from a pool of applicants to be awarded a home. The selected family participates in the construction and commits to pay a 20 year, 0% interest mortgage. In 2014, the first Habitat award recipient paid off her mortgage and now owns her home debt free, since then others have completed theirs as well!
Thank you in advance for helping make a difference in the lives of a DeSoto County family!
