Why Does Everyone Need a Home?

Here is a story I made up about a family who needed a good home. This was a family with 15 people in it (more than mine).Their old house was smaller than 15 desks put together. They needed space for them to stand in, and Habitat for Humanity stood up, and held a poem contest (not really a contest).Their home was small.They wanted a big house for all their family to share. In my house there is my family, a table, a desk, beds, a TV and a couch! My house is my home and I think others should have a home like me! My house has parts called doors, shingles, walls, a roof, attics and some railings.My home has a couch, family and friends, pets and one of my favourites, the Bible! Thank you Habitat for Humanity for helping others who need it. Family is an amazing thing to have. Food and water you need but a home or shelter is super important.The homes will be safe and cozy for the families.Some need a place for them and maybe pets to stay. I need my family and home just like others! Thanks for changing others' lives with a big, safe home.Thanks for kindness.
