As part of our Veterans Build program, construction volunteering gives US veterans, military service members, families, and neighbors the opportunity to continue serving their community. Veterans Build volunteer days are led by veterans, but all are welcome and we just scheduled seven Veterans Build days, including: Nov 12 & 13: Directly following the Veterans Day Holiday. Twelve active US Coast Guard members are joining us (for their second year) and we're looking for a few more to build with us! Mondays through Dec 17: Our newest Construction Supervisor, Rob Peterson is a great member of the Habitat team who is also a veteran. He's excited to work with all volunteers - but especially with other veterans. We have a few spots open now for anyone to try it out (no prior skills needed!) and if it's a good match there is the opportunity for becoming part of our dedicated "Hammer & Saw" crew of regular volunteers. |
