AUBURN – Androscoggin Habitat for Humanity will have a groundbreaking ceremony at 2 p.m. Sunday, June 7, for a four-bedroom house at 133 Hampshire St.

This will be the 15th house the group has built since it was founded in 1989.

President Allen Sterling said city officials and other guests are being invited to the ceremony and the public is welcome to attend. The new homeowners will be introduced.

The family, which includes five children ranging in age from 6 to 12, was chosen from a list of 25 applicants. The selection committee considered factors such as need for affordable housing and ability to repay the interest-free mortgage. The family now lives in an Auburn trailer park.

The house will be built on land purchased for $3,000 from the city of Auburn. Architect Michel Giasson of Auburn is providing building plans on a pro bono basis.

Sterling said that the organization may build a second home before this year’s construction season ends. The location of the second house is not yet determined, but there are hopes of acquiring city-owned land in either Auburn or Lewiston or possibly using land that the organization already owns.

Volunteers are needed to help with construction and no experience is necessary. Financial contributions also are welcome. For more information, call 786-2598.
