Global Village

Habitat Wake is grateful for the contributions great, small and everything in between from this incredible community across the globe.

Stewarding the boundless talents of those who serve alongside Habitat Wake is a distinct honor, and this is certainly the case in the legacy of Si Seiler, a long-time member of our Force of Habitat who passed away earlier this month.

We are staying in a guest house in the neighborhood and it was the first morning where I felt like I knew the route and recognized the faces we passed as we made our way to the work site.

After an hour long bumpy bus ride from the streets of what could be considered a South American New York City to the dusty dirt roads that intersect the village, we exited the bus into Romina and Lucas's front yard. Before the whole group was off the bus Romina began greeting us with a hug and a kiss and the excitement was clearly visible on Aure's face.
