Anita, Hillary & Shelby

Anita, Hillary & Shelby

As renters, Anita and her family were often on the move. In fact, they moved eight times in their 10 years of renting. And too many times they lived in substandard housing because, as a single parent, that was all Anita could afford.

Then Anita learned about Proud Ground.

"I told my best friend that Proud Ground has provided me with something I never thought I would be able to have."

Anita was surprised at some of the feelings that homeownership brought up.

"There are times when I just lay in bed and think, what it will be like to be here in 10 years? 20 years? I have never been able to stay in one place for very long.

"Now, my children and grandchildren will always have a place to come home to."
