A new Habitat for Humanity Ireland homeowner today received the keys to her new home at a dedication ceremony attended by Lord Mayor of Dublin, Brendan Carr. Stella Kelleher is now moving into her newly renovated one-bed cottage in Dublin 8. Stella is paying a small mortgage on the home and will come off the ever-growing Dublin City Council housing waiting list. The house was previously a derelict Dublin City Council property. Renovation work was completed with the support of Habitat for Humanity Ireland’s donors and volunteers, both individual and corporate, which helped to keep the home affordable. “I am honoured to be a part of this joyous occasion. It is wonderful to meet Stella and to celebrate this new home. This is an inspiring project that will provide Stella with the foundations for a brighter and healthier future. Habitat for Humanity Ireland, Dublin City Council, volunteers, donors and Stella have done tremendous work together to transform this derelict property into a home that will last generations. I commend everyone involved,” said Lord Mayor of Dublin, Brendan Carr. “Collaborative projects like Habitat for Humanity Ireland’s not only give a hand-up to families and individuals, but also help build community spirit, promote inclusion, and encourage wider community regeneration. The model is a practical example of how local authorities, civil society, the private sector and individuals can work to address the urgent, growing housing need in Dublin. I hope that this partnership continues and is developed for years to come,” said the Lord Mayor.
