Happy Friday, Saint Louis! We hope you’re all experiencing a joyful and seamless transition into the school year. In the spirit of back-to-school season, we wanted to share some food for thought. 🍎 It has been repeatedly demonstrated that a safe, stable, and high-quality home creates an ideal environment for children to learn - both in school and at home. Habitat Saint Louis upholds this principle as we work within our shared community to build safe, stable, and quality homes for hardworking families and their children. 🏡 Stable homes foster stable education. When children have a consistent place to call home during their school years, they are more likely to achieve better educational outcomes. Not only does this approach reduce or even completely remove the stress associated with moving - such as adjusting to new environments, making new friends, and learning names and routes - but it also provides a stable environment for a child. This stability creates an ideal space for them to prepare for the school day, unwind and reflect on what they’ve learned, and, of course, get a good night's rest. 💛 #backtoschool #education #earlyeducation #homelife #stablehousing (fb)

The Habitat Saint Louis team had a BALL this week at Busch Stadium! ⚾ It was a perfect day to celebrate successes, catch up with one another, and simply enjoy being in one another's presence - all while cheering and showing support for our St. Louis Cardinals! 📣 Our organization owes its success to the passion and commitment of every individual within our administrative, construction, and ReStore teams. Thank you to each and every person who has contributed to the Habitat mission! 💛 #stlouiscardinals #staffouting #habitatsaintlouis #goteam (fb)
