Habitat could not build our houses without the generous support of our donors and funding agencies and of our dedicated volunteers.
Foundations, local governments and area churches provided funds without which we could not build our Habitat houses. Many thanks to those who supported us in 2013 and those who are supporting us as we build our 10th Habitat house.

Volunteers
Volunteers are the mainstay of a Habitat home building project. In 2009 construction volunteers gave over 1,400 hours of their time to build the house for the Nixon family. Five of our volunteers worked more than 80 hours each; another seven volunteered for more than 40 hours and six worked more than 30 hours.
Without these dedicated, hardworking volunteers it would not be possible to build a Habitat house. Thank you to each and every volunteer.
Most especially, we thank David Strate, our unpaid volunteer construction manager, who worked 2-3 days a week from April to November to build the 2009 house and completed all the initial bid work and planning for our 2010 house.

Lunch time
It is said that an army travels on its stomach. While we aren’t quite an army, we know that volunteers really need their lunches. Many, many thanks to the wonderful volunteers who prepared lunches and carted them out to the building site to feed our volunteers!
