"Mama did it!"
“媽媽成功了！”
Phlonda Davis imagined her three children speaking those very three words whenever she encountered a barrier on the road to owning a home.
Phlonda Davis想象着她的三個孩子每次遇到購房路上的障礙時都會說這三個字。
The thought of hearing those words re-directed Davis each time.
這個想法讓Davis每次都重新開始。
Away from the unaffordable down payment requirements for a traditional mortgage.
遠離傳統抵押貸款中昂貴的首付要求。
Away from savings-robbing, never-ending rent hikes at the apartment she was leasing.
遠離租賃公寓中搶走儲蓄的無休止租金上漲。
Toward the fastest route to homeownership for her family - Habitat for Humanity of Greater Nashville.
Habitat for Humanity of Greater Nashville提供了便捷的購房途徑。
And Regions Bank provided Davis a lift to get there - in the form of a grant to Habitat, expressly for the construction of a new home for Davis, a single mother who works as a nonprofit human resources director.
而作爲一個非營利組織的人力資源主管，單身母親Davis得到了Regions銀行給Habitat的撥款，專門用於爲Davis建造新房。
"In Nashville, we have an affordable housing crisis," said Lethia Mann, a community development manager for Regions Bank. "Our partnership with Habitat helps us to provide new, quality housing that's affordable for the families who work every day in this community."
“在納什維爾，我們面臨着經濟適用房危機，”Regions銀行社區開發經理Lethia Mann說道。“我們與Habitat的合作能夠幫助我們爲每天在這個社區工作的家庭提供質優價廉的新房。”
Mann has served on Habitat Nashville's board for several years. The role offers her a front-row view of the organization's impact.
Mann在Habitat Nashville的董事會中任職數年。這個角色讓她有了一個組織影響的第一視角。
This is a step that's going to change the trajectory of generations to come in their families.

這是一個將改變未來幾代人的重要的步驟。

"We get to meet the families. We visit them in their homes. We meet their children," Mann said.
“我們會見這些家庭。我們去拜訪他們所住的房屋。我們見到他們的孩子，”Mann說。
"It's not just about getting a home and having a mortgage, but it's providing budgeting education so they can stay in the home for years and pass it on," Mann added. "They know this is a step that's going to change the trajectory of generations to come in their families."
“它不僅是關於購買一間房子和擁有一份抵押貸款，而是提供預算教育，使他們能夠在這些家中度過多年，並將它們傳給下一代，”Mann補充道。“他們知道這是一個將改變未來幾代人的重要的步驟。”
Mann and other Regions associates shared in Davis's ride toward homeownership through a day of hands-on sweat equity to help build her home. It was the Nashville team's 18th year participating in a build; the first time a build was combined with a targeted homeowner grant.
Mann和其他Regions公司員工通過當天的實際汗水來共同幫助Davis完成了他們的購房之旅。這是納什維爾團隊第18年參加此類活動，並且這是第一次將活動與有針對性的購房者補貼結合在一起。thDavis感謝Regions公司員工爲她提供的最終目的地 - 她自己的門口。
Davis thanked the associates for helping see her to her ultimate destination - a doorstep of her own.
“他們可以在任何地方幫助任何人或做任何事情。”戴維斯驚歎道。“但他們選擇和我一起出來。”
"They can be anywhere in the world, helping anybody, or doing anything," Davis marveled. "But they chose to be out here with me."
"他們可以在世界上任何地方幫助任何人或做任何事情，"戴維斯驚歎道。"但他們選擇和我在這裏一起。"
The experience has inspired Davis to give back. She plans to volunteer to help her new neighbors build their Habitat homes. The community will include single dwellings for nearly sixty families once it's complete.
這個經歷激勵戴維斯回報社區。她計劃志願幫助新鄰居建造他們的人居計劃住房。一旦完工，社區將包括將近60戶單身家庭的住房。
Davis hopes the following words will now resonate for her three children on their life journeys: "No matter where you come from, how you grew up, no matter the odds and obstacles that are stacked against you, you can do it," Davis said.
戴維斯希望以下話語現在能夠在她的三個孩子的人生旅途中產生共鳴：“無論你來自哪裏，你如何成長，無論有多大的障礙和困難擺在你面前，你都可以做到。”戴維斯說。
Because their mama did it.
因爲他們的媽媽做到了。
