Check this out: yesterday evening, a rainbow appeared at Chestnut Ridge! As we approach 3 full years since the historic 2022 flood, we welcome this ancient sign of hope and renewal. 🙏🌈. #disasterrecovery #easternkentucky #kentuckystrong #highground #ABrighterFuture #rainbow

Join us in congratulating 2 of our Hope Building trainees on reaching milestones in the program! Scotty Noble has been in the program for 8 months & Brandon Holbrooks has reached 4 months. Both of these guys work hard on the job & in their #recovery. We’re so super proud of them!

Our hearts are broken for the people of Texas. This particular flood brought back lots of terrible memories from our own flood experience in July 2022. 104 dead as hard-hit areas in Texas face new flooding risks: Recap

It’s always bittersweet when one of our Hope Building trainees graduates the program. We are going to miss you, Michael Ray, but we are so excited about the job opportunity you now have. Congratulations & thank you for all of your hard work the last 14 months! #recoverywins

Congrats to RJ, too! RJ is low-income, but thanks to our program funders, he’s now a new homeowner. So glad he’s now in his new home!

We’ve got some new homeowners in Perry County, KY. Congrats to ‘22 flood survivors Todd, Chelsea & the kids on your new home! It was a long time coming, but we are happy & blessed that you let us build your new home. No more living in a camper!

RT @GovAndyBeshear: Kentucky, we know all too well the heartbreak that a natural disaster can cause. What's happened in Texas is devastatin….

We're delighted to introduce you to Kayce Campbell, our Volunteer Program Summer Assistant! Kayce is a recent graduate of UPike & she's excited to be spending her summer with us. Kayce will begin her teaching career in the fall at Perry County Central High School.

Another new home has been built & sold! 🙌🏠🔑This beautiful home was built by our Hope Building crew (framing & finishing crews) using our floor plan "The Stacy Plus." Congrats to the new homeowners! We wish you a lifetime of happiness within these walls.

A big thanks again to this week’s #volunteers from Westminster Presbyterian Church (Dayton, OH)! These folks have worked every day in a full-blown heat wave to repair homes for those in need & help our carpenters finish new homes for flood survivors.

Our carpenters work in all types of weather & that includes the heat. With East KY experiencing a #heatwave, how do our carpenters deal with the sweltering temps? Let HDA Lead Carpenter Ronnie Boyd tell you! #HeatSafety #WorkingInTheSun #constructionlife #carpenterlife

ICYMI: Home construction at Chestnut Ridge is going strong! As 1 of 4 builders working on this project, we're thankful to @appalachianky, Craft Philanthropy, Western Pocahontas Properties & the Housing Can't Wait Initiative for this opportunity. 🙏

Chestnut Ridge is a true community project! We truly are #StrongerTogether.

Thank you to the ladies of LAFTA (Louisville Area Fiber and Textile Artists) for providing handmade quilts to help welcome flood survivors to their new homes! (The ones you see are just a small sample - they have DOZENS of quilts.)

Thank you, Craft Philanthropy! Joe & Kelly Craft donated $4 million to the Chestnut Ridge project for flood survivors.

Chestnut Ridge is going to be so beautiful. We were proud to stand today with @appalachianky, our fellow community partners, Senator Robert Stivers & our local officials, the Craft family & reps from Western Pocahontas Properties. We've waited for this day for a long time!

Y'all come & see Chestnut Ridge! TODAY at 9:45 AM.

Thank you to WYMT for covering the work of our incredible volunteers! .

Amazing week with our volunteers from Maryland DreamBuilders! 🙌👏 Unbelievably, despite the rains & the heat, they are roofing all 3 homes today! This group is definitely the kings & queens of our Ultimate House Raising Challenge. 👑
