Meet Sadie Hensler, a remarkable widowed mother of four, who has turned her challenges into triumphs. After the heartbreaking loss of her husband to stage 4 cancer, Sadie embarked on a new path as a CNA and dedicated herself to helping others in nursing homes. Despite the hardships, her resilience and positive spirit have guided her to a dream come true: owning her very first home!
Sadie shares, “Becoming a homeowner means so much more than just a new address. It means my children finally have their own rooms and space to grow. After years of living in a small space and sharing one bathroom, having a garage for our bikes and a place to park without scraping off snow feels like a true blessing. I cried tears of utter joy when we were chosen by Habitat for Humanity.”
Now, Sadie is not only building her own future but also helping build homes for others through her work with Helena Habitat. Her story is a testament to the power of hope, community, and the enduring love of a family.
“Johnny, my late husband, has always been my greatest inspiration. His memory has been the driving force behind my positive outlook and the incredible journey I am on today.”
Here’s to Sadie and her family, as they embrace their new forever home and continue to inspire us all with their strength and hope
