2009/10 Habitat For Humanity Project

ASID Arizona North Chapter 2009-2010 Charity of Choice

As you may have seen in the newest issue of Desert Design Magazine, Habitat for Humanity is our chapter's charity for the upcoming year.  Here is a big opportunity to do some volunteer work for them. 

Habitat is looking for a few dedicated people to become Site Hosts for this fall's building projects.  Site Hosts are attached to a single home for the duration of the build, from first framing to handing over the keys at the end of construction.  The Site Host works under a Home Leader who is in charge of the construction.  The job duties are quite easy, however the commitment is serious. 

Responsibilities:
·         greet volunteers
·         collect waivers
·         issue name tags
·         ensure water and first aid kit are on site
·         answer questions about the Habitat mission
·         act as liaison between building crew and volunteers
·         help implement home dedications at end of build

Time Commitment and Location:
·         2-3 hours every Saturday for 15 weeks
          (there is a possibility of splitting time with another site host and being responsible for only 7 weeks)
·         6am start time until October 31st, then 7am start time
·         Oro Vista - a 16th Street and Baseline neighborhood

You are welcome to stay on site for longer if you would like to help with construction.

If you are interested and can commit the time, please contact Angie Taylor at HfHCAZ (602.262.8655 / ataylor@habitataz.org) .  Framing will start within the next couple of weeks.  If you are interested please contact HfHCAZ as soon as possible.  Make sure to tell her you are an ASID member.

If this commitment is a little much for your schedule.we will be having more volunteer opportunities throughout the year, including working on a special "blitz build" when a home will be completed in only 5 days this November!
