The benefit home was completed August 5, 2014. The project generated $150,000 for Homes for HOPE and HOPE International. A dedication event will be held in Providence Village at the Community Center on August 20th at 11:30 a.m.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Homes for HOPE, a 501(c)(3) charitable non-profit organization, operates within the building industry across the United States, uniting builders and their trade partners, subcontractors, suppliers, and consultants to build a &#8220;Home for HOPE&#8221; (a benefit home) on a largely pro bono basis. All profits from the sale of the home will benefit HOPE International, a Christian organization working in many of the world\u2019s poorest countries to help families escape poverty through business development.

It\u2019s probably the largest payment you can make, and to know basically all the money is going to help other people and we get a place to live, too, makes it really great for us.\u201d Nelson Mitchell, president and CEO of HISTORYMAKER Homes, was encouraged by the generosity of HISTORYMAKER Homes\u2019 trade partners and stakeholders on this project saying, \u201cHISTORYMAKER was able to exceed our goal of $100,000 due to the commitment from our trade partners and stakeholders.
