Habitat for Humanity of Suffolk presented a family with the keys to their "forever home" in Wyandanch this morning.
Barbara Galloway, along with her three children and new husband, had been living in a small two-bedroom apartment.
She works at the Long Island Developmental Disability Services Office and is pursuing a bachelor's degree through New York College of Health Professions.
"It's so great to build your own house," she told News 12. "…The opportunity that I got with them is so great."
