    HONORING AMIE FRALEY'S DEDICATED SERVICE TO HABITAT FOR HUMANITY

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. RICHARD HUDSON

                           of north carolina

                    in the house of representatives

                       Thursday, January 15, 2026

  Mr. HUDSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Ms. Amie Fraley 
for her dedicated service to Habitat for Humanity of the North Carolina 
(NC) Sandhills, and to congratulate her on her new role with Habitat 
for Humanity International.
  After nearly sixteen years as executive director of Habitat for 
Humanity of the NC Sandhills, Amie announced she would be transitioning 
to a new role with Habitat for Humanity International, as an 
organizational development consultant. Throughout her many years of 
service, Amie played an immeasurable role in the growth of the 
nonprofit. Under her leadership, Habitat for Humanity increased its 
homebuilding pace from 10 to almost 13 houses per year. In addition, 
the nonprofit increased its focus on its Aging in Place repair program, 
providing more repairs for the disabled and over 55 populations in the 
region. Her efforts and collaboration significantly contributed to the 
growing influence of Habitat for Humanity across the state of North 
Carolina, acquiring a 103-acre property in Aberdeen to create a 
community called Sandhills Station, made possible by a $3 million 
dollar grant. I am honored to represent Amie, who has worked so 
diligently to improve our district and the state of North Carolina.
  It is my honor to take this opportunity to recognize Ms. Amie Fraley 
for her incredible service to Habitat for Humanity. I wish her all the 
best in her new role and hope she continues doing what she loves while 
also helping our community and country.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me today in honoring Ms. Amie Fraley for her 
nearly 16 years of dedicated service to Habitat for Humanity and the 
continued impact she will have in her new role with Habitat for 
Humanity International.
