Meet Derek Dinwiddie, a CDL Driver for Pepsi who’s achieving a long-held dream: becoming a homeowner!
After years of hard work and never giving up, Derek is finally building his home with Helena Habitat. “Without Habitat, I wouldn’t have been able to afford a home. Building costs are just too high,” Derek shared. From receiving the call from Habitat about being selected to build a home to choosing his home’s colors, every step has been a reminder that perseverance pays off.
Derek is hands-on in the process, learning new trades and working as part of a team. “It gives me pride in myself – I’ve never given up on myself and my goals.”
This journey is a testament to what can happen when you combine determination and support. Here’s to new beginnings and building something lasting!
