When Chris Shee started his custom home-building company, MasterCraft Builder Group, a cornerstone of his ethos was always to give back to the community that supported him. When Perry Homes recently acquired the highly respected homebuilder, they quickly reinforced their enthusiasm for Shee’s commitment to paying it forward. They recently gifted 15 Apple MacBooks to the Alpha-Omega Miracle Home.
“Perry Homes transitioned the team over to PCs, leaving us with 15 MacBooks,” said Shee. “They asked us to choose a local organization that could benefit from the computers, and we immediately thought of the Alpha-Omega Miracle Home. It’s an organization I’ve been proud to work with for many years, and this donation was something they desperately needed, as their systems were very outdated. I can’t thank Perry Homes enough for making a huge difference in the lives of such deserving women.”
The Alpha-Omega Miracle Home is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that provides housing, support and hope to single/expectant mothers, their children and senior women. Its supportive services are a bridge that allows mothers to transition out of poverty. Many of the laptops will help women who are finishing their GEDs, associate’s and bachelor’s degrees.
“We are so grateful for the Shee Family and Perry Homes,” said Lisa Franklin, founder and CEO of Alpha-Omega Miracle Home. “Our outdated computers were due for a change, and this generous gift was an answer to prayer. These MacBooks will support both staff and residents now and in the future, as we open our new campus. This will help equip our young mothers in our two-year GROW program, enabling them to pursue their educational goals and establish a career for a brighter future for themselves and their children. Their generosity is making a real impact — one life at a time.”
MasterCraft Builder Group and the Shee family have also been working with Alpha-Omega Miracle Home on the Building a Better Tomorrow capital project. For the last three years, they have been fundraising for a new campus that features three residential buildings that will provide safe and secure housing for an additional 120 women and children. They hope to break ground once it secures the last of the necessary funding. One of the three buildings will be named “The Shee Family,” in honor of the family’s personal donations.
