August 2018
Dear Habitat Friend,

Thank you! We held our mid-build celebration at the School Street homes last week and it is because of all of your work that we are moving so quickly on these homes. It was wonderful to be able to celebrate this milestone with the town of Acton, the families who will be moving into the homes, the many volunteer groups and supporters involved in the build, as well as our new neighbors. Amina, Violet, Ray and Sheryl were so happy to meet you all--and their children loved signing the studs that will be in their homes. Habitat believes that every person has something to contribute and something to gain from creating communities in which all people have decent, affordable places to live, and this project certainly proves that.

We are gearing up for our 5th annual Building Dreams Golf Tournament and encourage you to sign up a foursome if you haven't already! A big thank you to James Monroe Cable & Wire, McCarty Companies, Leominster Credit Union, Workers Credit Union, Rollstone Bank, HealthAlliance Hospital, EXIT New Options Real Estate, EXIT Agent Tom Ruble, Nashoba Valley Rotary, DMH Electric, Avidia Bank, and Capco Crane for stepping up as major sponsors. Also to EXIT realtor Denise Wortman,Turf Logic, Reddy Family Dental, Melick & Porter, Rockwell Roofing, St. Mary's Credit Union, Cain, Bourret, Jarry & Assoc, Hub Appraisals, CEA and Garage Doors Unlimited for sponsoring greens. We very much appreciate your support!

Thank you for your part in bringing our mission to life.

In partnership,
Carolyn

A Visit to the ReStore
The ReStore is our discount home improvement center. We accept donations of new and gently used items from individuals and local businesses, and sell to the public at a reduced cost, usually 50-70% of the original retail value. All profits support home ownership for hard working, low income families in North Central Massachusetts, while keeping good, reusable materials in use and out of the landfill.
Open Wednesday through Saturday, 10am-5pm.
