Habitat Kerr County Flood Recovery Efforts

One of the first homes Habitat for Humanity Kerr C

One of the first homes Habitat for Humanity Kerr County was trusted to repair, through the support of the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country, was the home of Don and Anne.

On July 4th, floodwater crept beneath their home. Their entire floor system had to be replaced.

Like so many families after the flood, their son did not wait for help to arrive. He immediately stepped in to help his parents recover, spending evenings and weekends working on the floors while balancing his own job, family, and responsibilities. He carried the weight of trying to hold everything together for the people he loved most.

But disaster recovery is exhausting, especially for families already carrying so much on their own.

That is where Habitat and the Community Foundation stepped in. After their son began the difficult work of repairing the home himself, Habitat was able to come alongside the family, help complete the repairs and restore stability

Don and Anne originally only reported damage to the interior floors. But knowing how much they loved their screened-in porch, Jay decided to look beneath the carpet and discovered severe dry rot. Even then, Don and Anne insisted they did not need anything more repaired.

Jay did not take no for an answer. He replaced the sub-floor, the worn storm door and added new carpet to the porch, restoring a space that had long been part of their everyday life and comfort. Anne later shared that she once woke up in the middle of the night, walked onto her repaired porch, and cried because she loved it so much.

Every family’s recovery journey looks different. Sometimes disaster recovery is not just about repairing a house. Sometimes it is about restoring the spaces that make a house feel like home.

Thanks to the support of The Community Foundation, families across the Hill Country are continuing to recover, one home at a time.

Happy Mother’s Day from Habitat for Humanity Ker

Happy Mother’s Day from Habitat for Humanity Kerr County 💙🌷

Today, we celebrate the mothers, grandmothers, and caregivers who fill homes with love, strength, and stability. We are inspired every day by the hardworking moms in our community who do whatever it takes to build a better future for their families.

Because home matters and so do moms. 🏡

Whether it’s four hands or forty, every helping

Whether it’s four hands or forty, every helping hand makes a difference. 💙

With Mother’s Day tomorrow, we’re especially thankful for the incredible mom & son duos from Boerne YMSL who continue to give their time and heart to Habitat year after year, month after month.

Your support helps build more than homes, it helps build community. 🏡

Every family deserves the safety, stability, and d

Every family deserves the safety, stability, and dignity of a place to call home. Yet too many hardworking families in our community are being priced out of the housing market, facing rising rents, and struggling with unfair housing conditions.

At Habitat for Humanity Kerr County, we’re opening doors through affordable homeownership and building communities like Mariposa where families can put down roots and build a brighter future.

A safe home changes everything. It creates stability for children, peace of mind for parents, and hope for generations to come.

Give. Speak Up. Volunteer.
Because housing matters.
Because home matters.
Because together, we can open the door to a stronger community. ❤️

Day 3 of Madelyn’s Stars and Stripes service project and what a transformation 💙❤️

We installed three benches, added a tetherball and mulched around the tree where kids love to gather and play.

We are so proud of Madelyn for her vision, her leadership and the heart she poured into every detail to make this park happen. This is what it looks like when young leaders step up and create something meaningful for others. ✨

It was a great Saturday serving alongside St. Mark Presbyterian Church Boerne!

We got one of the homes in Mariposa caulked and made great progress on the exterior paint 🎨

We’re so grateful for volunteers who show up, work hard, and make our mission possible. Your time truly builds homes and hope. 💙

In March, we were deeply honored to stand alongside four families as they celebrated home blessings after the flood.

Through our partnership with Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country and the unwavering support of local caseworkers, these homes have been carefully repaired and with them, a sense of stability and hope has been restored.

Each home carries a story far greater than the work itself. They reflect resilience, trust, and the quiet strength of a community that shows up for one another in times of need.

We are incredibly grateful to the homeowners who placed their trust in us and allowed us to walk beside them on their journey home. It is a privilege we do not take lightly.

Madelyn rolled up her sleeves for Day 2 of her Stars and Stripes service project at Habitat 🌿

This phase of her project was all about the flower beds in the Maud Jennings neighborhood park. Her vision is to create a space that feels more welcoming and accessible for the families who live here, and you can already start to see it taking shape.

With three low maintenance flower beds, the transformation is well underway.

Thank you to The Plant Haus 2 and Maldonado Landscape for donating the plants and helping move this project forward. Stay tuned for the final reveal!

The Center Point High School National Honor Societ

The Center Point High School National Honor Society joined us on site again for their annual volunteer day with Habitat!

Year after year, Ms. Young’s students show up ready to serve their community and make a real impact. This time, they helped clear out construction debris and leftover materials from three homes, getting them ready for families to move in at the end of this month. We’re always glad to have them on site!

Rain or shine, this community shows up. 💪🌧️☀️

This weekend, we laid sod for 5 homes in Mariposa with the help of many hands. YMSL, community members, friends, and families all coming together to serve.

A special thank you to Dream Team Landscaping for always showing up for Habitat and for our community. Your team not only worked hard alongside us, but helped guide our volunteers every step of the way. It’s always powerful to see volunteers leave having learned something new.

These homes have been completely transformed, and we can’t wait for families to move in and make them their own.

None of this would be possible without the support of the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country. 💙

Together, we build.
