Habitat House

Under the theme “Building a Home for the Millennium,” the Junior League of Kingston partnered with the Ulster County Habitat for Humanity in 2000. The home’s landlord donated the house to Habitat after he became hard-pressed to maintain it. Close to $45,000 in money and services were raised for the project. Junior League volunteers turned what was a run-down, vacant building into a clean, freshly painted, four-bedroom home for a family with four children. After two years of dedicated work the home on Henry Street in Kingston was completed.
