“I’m excited for the opportunity to work with the community and lead our Christian housing ministry” Walters said. Habitat has served Knox County since 1993 and built or rehabilitated 55 homes.

affordable to them. The homes are made affordable because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers here in Knox County.
