Once homeless, New Braunfels family opens door to new, fully furnished home

NEW BRAUNFELS, Texas - Clayton, one of the leading builders of prefabricated and site built homes, has partnered with Family Promise, a leading national nonprofit addressing the family homelessness crisis in America, to present a New Braunfels family with a brand-new prefabricated home.

The owners of a mobile roadside assistance company, Mona Lisa and Oscar De Paz of New Braunfels tried to live their dream of owning a business and providing for their family of five, but when receiving payments from clients proved to be a challenge, they suddenly found themselves without a place to live. With nowhere to turn, the family slept in their car or at a storage facility with their belongings. The storage facility manager suggested they contact Family Promise of Greater New Braunfels. In three months, the family successfully completed the program’s requirements, secured steady employment and housing and achieved sustainable independence.

The home donation moment was marked at a local ribbon-cutting event where representatives from Family Promise, Clayton and Ashley HomeStore were on hand as the couple and their three sons were welcomed to their new three-bedroom, two-bath fully furnished home.
