DELRAY BEACH, Fla. (PRWEB) April 23, 2018 -- Venture Construction Group of Florida (VCGFL) partners with Habitat for Humanity South Palm Beach County and launches a series of pro-bono construction and roofing projects for South Florida residents in need. On April 5, VCGFL will provide a new roof to one of Habitat’s very first clients to kick off National Volunteer Month.

“At Venture, we are committed to giving back and empowering others. We are dedicated to consistently building relationships with amazing nonprofits like Habitat for Humanity to support the work that they do,” says Stephen Shanton, president and CEO of Venture Construction Group of Florida.

“At Venture, we are committed to giving back and empowering others. We are dedicated to consistently building relationships with amazing nonprofits like Habitat for Humanity to support all the work that they do in our communities,” says Stephen Shanton, president and CEO of Venture Construction Group of Florida.

Local Delray Beach resident and Habitat recipient Ruth Jayes has come a long way since beginning her first partnership with Habitat for Humanity in the 1980s. Over 30 years ago, Jayes was in a violent relationship and living in an Aid to Victims of Domestic Violence (AVDA) shelter before moving on and qualifying for her first home with Habitat for Humanity. Being accepted into Habitat’s Homeowner Partnership Program changed her life and the life of her daughter. After establishing her independence, she went on to obtain an Associate’s degree, then a Bachelor’s degree, then a Master’s degree in Business. Jayes held a successful career with a Health Insurance Claims Company in Deerfield Beach. Jayes instilled the value of education into her family. Ruth’s daughter went on to earn her Doctorate in Education from Nova Southeastern University. Now retired with health issues, Jayes recently experienced severe damage to her roof from Hurricane Irma.

“If a roof is not in good condition in Florida, insurance typically doesn’t extend the policy. It’s imperative to get frequent property inspections not only to keep your policy intact, but also to prevent future leaks that deteriorate your property,” says Shanton.

Habitat for Humanity of South Palm Beach County partners with families in need to build affordable homes together. Each Habitat partner family is required to invest a minimum of 400 sweat equity hours of their own labor into the construction of homes before being eligible to purchase their home utilizing a 30 year, no profit, no interest loan. Habitat houses are sold to partner families at no profit and financed with affordable loans. The homeowners’ monthly mortgage payments are used to build more Habitat houses. Habitat relies on financial contributions from generous donors, both individual and corporate as well as volunteers. Learn more or donate at http://www.habitatsouthpalmbeach.org.

Through the HABITAT HAMMERS BACK initiative, Habitat for Humanity is deploying trained Habitat "Disaster Corps" volunteers responding to Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria helping families to clean up and prepare for the rebuilding effort to come. In Florida, Habitat is conducting rapid assessments of Hurricane Irma damage and helping clean out homes damaged by winds and flood waters. Habitat’s long-term post-disaster recovery efforts include repair of damaged homes and construction of new affordable homes.

Committed to volunteerism, VCGFL sponsors numerous charitable endeavors and volunteers at nonprofits throughout the year including Aid to Victims of Domestic Violence, ALS, ARC of Martin County, Congregation B’nai Israel, Gemma’s Angels Foundation, Habitat for Humanity, Roof Deployment Project, SafeSpace, Support Our Troops, and more.
