352 Peck Street

If you see a grey, rainy day, look again. The day was beautiful as a family broke ground to begin the journey of building their own home. On December 16, Raise the Roof celebrated a groundbreaking with the family of Maritza Rodriguez and Jason Villa at 352 Peck Street, Raise the Roof’s fifteenth sponsored Habitat build.

Thank you to all who have helped the Rodriguez-Villa family build this house. This is how a community builds…
