Building Houses - Building Hope Breakfast
—April 26, 2007
This first to-be-annual breakfast was a resounding success. Invited were members of the community believed to be sympathetic to the goals of Habitat for Humanity and its mission locally. An overview of Habitat's program and progress in Washington County was followed by comments from two local Habitat homeowners about what owning a home has meant to them. Attendees were then asked to make a financial commitment to the program. In addition to a favorable response to pledge requests, a broader understanding of Habitat's mission was experienced by all present. The next Building Houses—Building Hope Breakfast is scheduled for early April, 2008.
