Nicole knows what it takes to achieve her goals. Her proudest accomplishment is going back to school to get her GED, and then continuing on to college. Now, as a Patient Access Representative with VCU Health Systems, Nicole finally feels ready to achieve her dream of homeownership.
A single-mother of two children, Nicole wants to show her children that anything is possible if you work hard.
Currently, the Smith’s live in a small apartment where they constantly hear noise from their surrounding neighbors. Nicole grew up in public housing and is excited to finally experience the serenity of having a quiet home she can call her own.
In order to prepare for her new role as a homeowner, Nicole completed ten educational classes offered through our Homeowner Services Department and 350 “sweat equity” hours, volunteering to build her home and supporting other Habitat projects. Shortly, she will purchase her home and pay an affordable, 0% interest mortgage, making her dream of homeownership a reality.
