Habitat For Humanity: 2021 Builders Blitz

Since 1984, Wharton-Smith has believed in building our community with our hands and heart – that’s why we are a proud sponsor and supporter of Habitat for Humanity of Seminole County & Greater Apopka.

Please join us in congratulating Latashia and her family on their new endeavor!…
