Exciting News on the Habitat Women Build

See pictures from the build on March 1st!

The on-line auction for the Women Build is moving right along. Thanks to all of you who have donated and are still donating items to be auctioned off. Every 10 days auction items come off and new ones go up. So keep a close eye on your bidding.

I just want to remind you of a few things. There are many ways that you can assist us in this project. Remember we need to raise $65,000 to build this home so obviously cash always works. Secondly we need volunteers to help build the house. As I told you at the luncheon Saturday, March 1st is the kickoff and Saturday, March 15th is NEW day. It is our day to volunteer. If you want to volunteer for either day you can contact Robin Smith at robin@e-sourceva.com and if you can't make it those two days but you can come during the week we need volunteers for Tuesday through Saturday. Please let Robin know of your interest that way we can keep track on how many volunteers we have per day. Also no one 16 of age and younger will be allowed on the site. I know some of you had asked if you could bring your children. This is the law set by Habitat.

If you cannot make any of the volunteer days but you want to DONATE CASH click on the Habitat link http://www.richmondhabitat.org and hit the drop down arrow and choose WOMEN BUILD and just follow the directions.

If you prefer to send a check please send it to the address below and make your checks payable to RICHMOND HABITAT FOR HUMANITY-WOMEN BUILD and make sure you put women build in the reference line on the check.
