Habitat for Humanity Guyana (HfHG) Inc through its Buy-a-Block 2012 initiative has constructed a home for former Qualfon Guyana employee, Kaminie Chichester.

A release from Habitat said that Chichester, a mother of three,  used to live in a one-bedroom house with inadequate toilet facilities and living space.  When illness forced her to cease working, she believed her dream of home ownership had ended, the release said.  However, after working at Qualfon Guyana for over 20 years, Chichester had won the hearts of many at the local office and at the company’s headquarters in Mexico.
