I'm pulling a Jimmy Carter and doing a Habitat build, y'all! Well, my company Mintel is. But I'm so excited to be a part of it!

Did you know that decent, stable, and affordable housing is crucial for a family's overall health and well-being? Families living in decent housing experience fewer health issues and are less likely to require emergency care. Children living in quality and affordable housing are significantly more likely to graduate from high school and college. Families living in affordable homes have double the discretionary income to pay down debt or invest in a savings account. 

One in ten Chicagoans currently live in inadequate housing. That number's too high.

You can make a difference. By contributing to my goal of $500, you are giving local families in need the opportunity to thrive. I appreciate any support you can give - big, small, or somewhere in between!
