After years of uncertainty, Mohamed and Soukaina are building a secure future through Habitat for Humanity Southern Alberta. Their affordable home will give their growing family the peace of mind to plan careers, raise children, and put down lasting roots in Calgary.

Mohammed and Tiba are future Habitat for Humanity homeowners preparing to move into a townhouse in Livingston with their two children – Mayar (10) and Adem (4).
