Holiday cheer, Habitat-style! We loved being part of the Hillsborough Holiday Parade yesterday. Because at #OrangeHabitat, a safe place to call home is the best gift — all year long as we showcased a home for every holiday!

August is Make a Will Month, and all month long, we'll be dispelling myths about legacy giving on #WillWednesday! Third myth: I made a will years ago, so I’m all set.

Wills should be updated every 3 – 5 years or after major life changes (like moves, births, or deaths).
