Sen. Maggie Hassan Attends Nashua Habitat Key Ceremony on Thursday

NASHUA, NH —Sen. Maggie Hassan attended the Greater Nashua Habitat for Humanity's 15th Key Ceremony on Thursday, where two military veterans were presented with keys to their new Habitat-built duplex on Paxton Terrace.

The duplex was built by Habitat in honor of Roger Hall, a longtime volunteer for the local chapter who passed away in 2018.

Hassan thanked the volunteers who built the home and said the project is extra special because it will benefit veterans.

"I really appreciate that these homes are going to two incredibly deserving individuals who have bravely served our country and have made immense sacrifices to keep us safe, secure and free. It is inspiring to see that so many Granite Staters could come together to make this project possible," said Hassan, who is a member of the Senate Veteran Affairs Committee.

In a statement on social media, the local Habitat chapter said it was pleased to celebrate two new homeowners and their children.

"'Welcome home' is our favorite phrase ..." the Nashua Habitat said in its statement. "It was a memorable key ceremony with so many people to thank. Our affordable home building and mortgage program offers strength, stability and self-reliance, which are now a reality for two more Habitat families in Greater Nashua. Home is the key to a better life."
