Dauphin’s Habitat for Humanity has found their family.
During the unveiling yesterday at the location of the new home it was announced that Leona Mazurat and her kids will be moving into the future home.
Natalie Yaworsky Doan, the Chairperson for the Family Selection Committee, spoke with us at the unveiling yesterday, about the family.
“The family that was chosen was by Habitat For Humanity Manitoba is Leona Mazurat and her three children Ethan, Leia, and Lexi. They’ve lived in Dauphin now for 8 years. They exhibited criteria that Habitat had asked for the applicants which is: showing need, ability to repay, and willing to partner with habitat.”
Leona Mazurat had to keep the secret of their selection for over a week, she wasn’t even allowed to tell her kids.
“I was shocked, to be honest, I didn’t know how it was going to play out. I don’t know, I was just shocked!”
Now that Habitat has officially chosen the family, Rodney Juba, the President of the Dauphin Chapter, says the group can now go and create designs for an appropriate house for the family of four.
