Habitat for Humanity

By
Real Estate Agent with Century 21-Affiliated

How many of you have helped build a Habitat home?  It really feels good to participate in such an important event.

This weekend our local Habitat Home was given to the new family.  This was a home that our office took upon ourselves to fund as part of the 100 year Coldwell Banker anniversary.  While raising the money necessary to start the build we also go involved in the building process. 

While attending the NAR convention in New Orleans, my husband and I went to help for a day as well.  The habitat homes under construction there were amazing as well and the need never ends.

So, I challenge you to find a Habitat build either in your local area to help with or while on vacation.  These homes are built world-wide so you won't have trouble finding one. 

If you're a women and you think..there is nothing I can do to help??  You are wrong.  While in New Orleans, I learned to side a house.  It was really fun to learn how to do house building techniques!  There are even women builds.

So get out there and help someone get into a home.  It's the right thing to do!

I just started with H4H here in Fremont County. I'm going to be the Volunteer Coordinator (I think). You don't have to "swing a hammer" they need help with fund raising and grant writing as well. This Saturday I'm helping with the float of the Apple Blossom Parade and Festival!

Great post. Thanks for the challenge to look outward to other instead of inward to self.
