Keeping the home organized and clean is a healthy way to live. Some amazing financial advisors in our Iowa Southern MN Thrivent Member Network (in this picture), did a quick & easy action team putting together kits for 2025 new homeowners with Cedar Valley Habitat for Humanity. We made 8 kits to be given at home dedications that include cleaning buckets, sprayer bottles, vinegar, 'cleaning with vinegar tip sheet', reusable rubber gloves, microfiber cleaning clothes, sponges, brushes, and a pack of hangers. Also included is a brochure for Thrivent's Money Canvas program, another free resource that can make a big difference for a healthier household budget.

Thrivent and Habitat have a wonderful partnership - and it's especially fun to see that locally. We are very grateful for our partners at Cedar Valley Habitat. Thanks for all you do to help every person have a place to call home. And this crew of advisors would be happy to help anyone have a great plan in place for an organized financial house.

Every person deserves a home - Every person deserves a plan
