The Integra Group, Chesterfield, Missouri, the creator of landscape management Boss Software, partnered up with Habitat for Humanity St. Louis to build a home for a family in need. The Integra Group has been a partner with the local Habitat chapter building homes since 2015.
“The Integra Group supports Habitat for Humanity St. Louis’ mission to ensure everyone has a roof over their head by working with families to help them acquire the access, skills and financial education necessary to be successful homeowners,” says Mike Cossins, president and founder of The Integra Group. “By partnering with Habitat for Humanity, families seize the opportunity and possibility that decent, affordable housing represents, and we are proud to support such a worthy cause.”
Integra Group team members lent their skills and time to help build the exterior framing on the ranch-style home in St. Louis’ Riverview/Glasgow Village neighborhood. This project supports The Integra Group Foundation’s mission of giving to the less fortunate through both monetary donations and personal involvement.
Habitat for Humanity offers a homeownership opportunity to families living between 25% and 50% of the area median income, who are generally unable to obtain conventional house financing. In addition to purchasing their home and paying an affordable mortgage, partner homeowners contribute 350 hours of “sweat equity” on the construction of their home or another Habitat St. Louis home and take educational courses to help them succeed at owning a home.
