A Brush with Kindness: Completed Driveway

The new driveway at Habitat for Humanity of Southern Santa Barbara County's first A Brush with Kindness home repair is now complete! Thanks to a donation of driveway pavers from the Deconstruction and ReUse Network, Suzanna and her sister Tina now have a beautiful - and functional - new driveway!

Who doesn't love before and after pictures? They really are some of the best way to visually see the impact that a few days of service really make. This driveway was completed thanks to some very hardworking volunteers. It's not easy to lay pavers but somehow they made it look like a breeze.

A Brush with Kindness is a program that assists low-income homeowners in repairing their homes so they can continue to live in a safe, decent home. The program was created to fill a need among families trying to fix up their deteriorating homes. We at Habitat for Humanity Santa Barbara are committed to walking alongside struggling families to offer them a hand up and hope for a brighter future.
