Hello volunteers!
Halifax Habitat for Humanity has recently completed our last house and
we’re expecting to start two more by mid October. One is being built in
Fall is approaching and so is our next big event. Bubba Gump’s Shrimp Company will again be sponsoring a fundraiser for Halifax Habitat for Humanity. See the following information and mark your calendar now:
7th Annual Bubba’s Building Block Party!
Saturday, November 22, 2008
1:00 – 4:00 PM
Ocean Walk Shoppes
Construction Team of eight - $500.
(great food included)
Both adults and youth (8 yrs and older) will be building amazing structures out of children’s colorful building blocks (provided by Habitat). Awards will be presented for the Most Creative, Most Functional, Best Use of Color, Best Design Concept, Best Use of Props, Most Team Spirit and Forrest’s Favorite (Best of Show). Two additional categories added last year and included again this time are “Most Learned Apprentice” for a 2nd year team and “New Kid on the Block” awarded to a 1st year team. You don’t want to miss this exciting competition! For more details about this event and how your business, club, church, organization or family can get involved, please contact me at (386) 257-9950.
We’ve got a special project coming up that requires some volunteer assistance. Habitat has been contacted by a property owner who has a house that is to be demolished soon. The windows are in excellent condition and are being donated to the Habitat Home Store for resale. We need a few people to help remove these windows on Wednesday, October 8th. If you are available (work starts at 8 am), get back with me as soon as possible and I’ll give you directions. Thanks so much. J
