for TCE offered to residents in 2009, 2010, and 2011 to those who
qualify. See Jerry for more details.
Our guest speakers were Diane Graham and Frieda Brigner from Habitat for
Humanity. Diane began by giving some background on HH. This organization
has built 160 homes in the last 26 years. Currently, HH is rehabbing two
properties on Alaska Street, stating Old North Dayton is an ideal location
to build.
Both Frieda and Diane spoke about the various volunteering opportunities
within Habitat for Humanity. They are looking to partner with people with
different skill sets. Volunteers can find an area that they are
interested in such as being a mentor, serving on a committee, working at a
site, or even help fundraising events. HH also holds strong relationships
with other agencies in the community to help families in need.
They also talked about the Dayton Habitat ReStore which is a retail outlet
where materials are donated by building supply stores, contractors, or any
individuals supporting HH. People then can purchase building materials
for a fraction of the cost. These proceeds help fund the constructions of
the Habitat homes. HH is also working on a pilot program to recycle
anything that is salvageable during deconstruction of buildings.
Next Meeting is on October 28, 2009. Topic: Five Rivers Metro Park
DON’T FORGET TO SUPPORT OUT LOCAL BUSINESSES!
