Notable Moments: The Blueprints and Blue Jeans signature event was a hit once again this season as supporters arrived for cocktail hour and bid on the myriad of silent auction items. The event program included a video message from longtime supporter and partner of Habitat for Humanity, Kurt Warner. The organization also introduced the “Habitat Hero Awards” to recognize a corporation and individual or couple for their outstanding support. Attendees heard a powerful testimony from Stephanie, a single mother and Habitat volunteer, who after facing a lifetime of housing insecurity, now lives in a home built by the organization. The evening capped off with sounds from the Ben Cortez duo in the lobby.
