Habitat for Humanity of La Pine Sunriver (HFHLPS) is proud to celebrate
the dedication of three newly completed townhomes in Putney Place on December 7, 2024.
These homes mark the culmination of the Putney Place development and represent a
significant milestone in HFHLPS’s mission to provide affordable homeownership opportunities
in South Deschutes County.
The construction of these homes was made possible through a combination of Oregon’s Down
Payment Assistance Program, Individual Development Accounts, and grants from Oregon
Housing and Community Services and the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA).
The organization also extends its deepest gratitude to the countless volunteers who
contributed their time, skills, and dedication to make this project a reality. In particular, Habitat
thanks the students from Central Oregon Community College and Youth Connect, whose hard
work and energy were instrumental in the completion of these homes.
Executive Director Kim Gammond highlighted the community-wide impact of these efforts,
stating: “Homeownership is more than just a key to a house; it’s a key to stability, opportunity,
and hope for families and communities. These homes in Putney Place will create lasting change
for the families moving in, and we are incredibly grateful to all who helped make this possible.”
The three townhomes dedicated today bring the Putney Place development to a close. Habitat
for Humanity of La Pine Sunriver looks forward to continuing its mission with new
opportunities. Information about homeownership for our 2026 build in Park View, La Pine, will
be released this spring.
