The Zapata Home in a Month 2023







































The Home in a Month of 2023 was the replacement of a 50-year-old mobile home for the Zapata family. Orlando and Rachael Zapata had lived in their old home with their youngest daughter, a recent graduate of DSHS, and three grandchildren. Rachael had lived in this home every day since she was brought home from the hospital after being born. This old home had outlived its ability to provide safe and healthy housing for this family. With failing electrical systems, septic issues, and fifty plus years of Texas elements breaking down the home, help was needed for these longtime residents of Dripping Springs.
