Bend-Redmond Habitat for Humanity is grateful for the continuing partnership with Washington Federal Foundation to advance affordable homeownership in Central Oregon. “It is extremely important for our community to work together to create desperately-needed, affordable home ownership,” said Scott Rohrer, Bend-Redmond Habitat for Humanity’s president and CEO. “Washington Federal Foundation understands this, and we are honored to work with them to that end.”
