Build a house, help a colleague


Like countless Kansas Citians, you're likely familiar with the fine work of Habitat for Humanity.

Our area Habitat is offering an amazing opportunity to the MCC-Blue River community. One of our Blue River colleagues is the recipient of a Habitat house and you can help make her dream a reality!

Volunteers needn’t have experience in building or construction. In fact, Pat Turner, the executive director of the Truman Heritage Habitat for Humanity, says there are “zero” expectations for construction knowledge.

You can contribute in a variety of ways. Some of the tasks are:

· Hammering nails and screwing screws
· Cutting and hanging siding
· Picking up scraps and much more!

Your help is needed on Saturday, November 6 and Saturday, Nov. 13 from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. No need to bring tools, Habitat provides everything needed.

If you (and/or a friend) can offer assistance to this worthy cause and help a Blue River co-worker, please contact Barbara Schaefer as soon as possible. Her number is 816.604.6558.
