Homeowner Profile: Meet Kamesha

Meet Kamesha
Kamesha is a native of Richmond who was raised in Historic Church Hill. After high school, she put herself through technology school and now works at MRI of Richmond as an Insurance Coordinator. She is a single mom to 5-year-old Kameron, who is enrolled in kindergarten at Chimborazzo Elementary. Kameron loves to play football and basketball.
Kamesha says she enrolled in our Homeownership Program (after hearing about it from other homeowners) in order to be able to afford a safer place for her and her son to live in. She is working hard to complete all her required ‘sweat equity’ hours and educational classes.
Kamesha says she recommends the Richmond Metropolitan Habitat for Humanity Homeownership Program for single parents like herself who want to own a home but are unable to afford a traditional mortgage. Soon the Henderson’s new home on 33rd Street will be complete and she and Kameron will have a comfortable and safe home to call their own.
Come help us finish the Henderson’s home. To volunteer at The Pillars At Oakmont or donate financially to the construction of Kamesha and Kameron’s home, call (804) 232-7001 or visit www.richmondhabitat.org.
