Building Hope This Holiday Season: How You Can Give Back During #GivingTuesday

Happy #GivingTuesday everyone. As the holiday season approaches, we at Old Colony Habitat for Humanity invite you to turn the spirit of generosity into real change – a safe, stable home for a family in need. We don’t celebrate GivingTuesday on one day, we celebrate it throughout the course of a few weeks.

This year, our project at 762 Washington Street, Franklin, MA is extra special. We’re transforming the historic 1856 “Old South” church into a modern, energy-efficient, beautiful home – preserving a piece of community history while creating a place of warmth and security. The future homeowners of this special build, the Marmol Family, are looking forward to a fresh start and the stability that a home brings. The Marmol Family includes hardworking mom, Sally and her three beautiful children: Amelia, Evani, and JJ. 

Here’s how you can help this holiday season!

1. Donate Toward the Franklin Build

Your financial support takes us one step closer to our goal of creating this home. Every donation, no matter the size – brings us closer to welcoming the Marmol Family in 2026!

You can donate directly here. 

2. Shop Sally’s Amazon Wishlist

Prefer a more hands-on way to give? You can shop items from Sally’s Amazon wishlist. These gifts help furnish and equip the future home – making it move-in ready and comfortable for her family!

This isn’t just about a house being built – it’s about community, hope, and giving someone a chance to thrive! With your generosity, we turn an empty, historic building into a loving home where memories, laughter, and new beginnings happen.
