A New Start, and a Clear Path Forward

Welcome home, Myricco!

After years of moving from apartment to apartment, Myricco and his daughter finally have a place to call their own — their little piece of the American dream.

"It's new beginnings, new life,” says Myricco’s daughter. “I get to restart, refresh, and not have to worry about crazy stuff happening."

With guidance from Green Country Habitat for Humanity counselors, Myricco tackled his credit, reduced his debt, and made homeownership a reality.

"They gave me the structure and steps I needed. And here we are," says Myricco

His message to anyone on the fence? Reach out — even if you think you don't qualify. They'll show you the way.

"It's a great opportunity, a great program. I'm glad somebody referred me, because if not, I wouldn't be standing here right now."

Congratulations, Myricco! Special thanks to Maplemark Bank for providing an affordable mortgage.

Bring a Homeowner Orientation Meeting to Your Neighborhood

Stories like Myricco's start with a single conversation — and we want to make that conversation easier to have.

This June, we took our Homeowner Orientation on the road, hosting info sessions in North Tulsa, East Tulsa, and Wagoner. These classes are the first step toward buying a Habitat home and are typically held at our offices. But we know that getting across town isn't always easy. So we're coming to you.

Know a church, community center, library, or neighborhood group that would be a great host? We'd love to connect. Help us find our next stop.

Blitz Build Kickoff Moved to September

Due to unexpected delays, we have moved the Clark Howard’s Blitz Build, originally scheduled for early July 11 to September 26.

Despite this change, we are looking forward to the cooler temperatures in late September, and the opportunity to host a larger community event at the Wilshire Trails neighborhood near 33^rd Street North and Peoria.

This year’s Clark Howard’s Blitz Build will kick off the 31-home neighborhood by seeing sponsors teams and volunteers raise walls on ten homes in one day—making this our largest Blitz Build ever.

Interested in sponsoring future builds? Contact Rob Gardenhire at rgardenhire@greencountryhabitat.org.
