The Barnett family

Eric and Jennifer Barnett have three sons: Bradley, Brian and Brandon, and currently rent two bedrooms in Jennifer's parent's three-bedroom home in San Juan Capistrano. Their current living situation does not provide them enough space or privacy for their own growing family. The Barnetts grew up in Orange County and have been renting here for four years. Without help, the Barnetts don't see their dream of owning a house becoming reality in the near future.

The Barnett's motivation for wanting to own a Habitat home mainly has to do with their children. In reference to his children, Eric stated, "We want them to have what we had growing up in a house they can call their own." The Barnett family also understands and appreciates the value of Habitat for Humanity and the services they administer to deserving families. "Habitat for Humanity offers people a chance at the 'American Dream,' that is other wise out of reach. The Barnett family will be future residents of a four-bedroom home in Fullerton.
