Harris, a single mother of two, was among several other new homeowners who worked alongside mire than 1,000 volunteers to build 10 homes in two weeks.
After going through the challenging process, Harris said she’s happy to move into her new home.
“Today is like a blessing. It’s like a relief — like I feel free now, it’s over,” she said. “I’m just waiting to move in, and it’s a wonderful feeling.”
The build brought together people from across Miami-Dade county and the rest of the country to help build decent, affordable homes for low-income families.
