Project for the
Craig Jump Family
Family to move into Habitat home
during holidays
As the holiday season approaches, many families in the
Loudon County community will not have warm homes or
decent shelter where they can celebrate this joyful season.
Because of Loudon County Habitat for Humanity and
numerous community organizations, this is not the case
for the Jump family now.
Ten years ago, Craig Jump was living in his car in the
parking lot of a church, said Gary E. Drinnen Jr. with Lou-
don County Habitat for Humanity.
"Lora would bring Craig breakfast after he showered at
a nearby truck stop. The couple married soon after and
Craig joined the Army," Drinnen said.
In May of 2004, after two years of active service, Craig
was nearly fatally injured in an accident loading tanks
in Germany. The injury left him permanently disabled
and the family buried beneath thousands of dollars in
medical bills. To help make ends meet, the family shared
a trailer with Lora's parents.
Tellico Village RV Club and Tellico Village Polish
Heritage Club partnered with Loudon County Habitat for
Humanity to build a home in partnership with the Jump
family. The home will be dedicated 2 p.m. Friday, Nov. 20.
The public is invited to attend this dedication and share
in the excitement as the Jump family prepares to move
into their new home just in time for the holidays.
Parking for the dedication will be provided at Tellico
Village Community Church through the Irene Lane
entrance. Shuttles will be provided to and from the new
home.
