Our response to the rebuilding efforts in Haiti

Last month, the Habitat for Humanity of New Castle County Board of Directors approved a measure committing our affiliate to raising funds for the relief and rebuilding efforts in Haiti. We are challenging the community to raise up to $10,000 for Haiti, which HFHNCC will then match from our own resources.

HOW YOU CAN GET INVOLVED:
1) Attend our Annual Dinner. Habitat's Annual Dinner "Building More than Houses...Building Communities" will be held on April 15, 2010 at Cavalier Country Club in Newark, Delaware. A portion of the proceeds from event tickets will go to benefit Haiti. To register, or for more information, see here: http://www.habitatncc.org/donate/special_event.php

2) Shop at our ReStore. 10% of all sales made during the month of April will benefit Habitat for Humanity's projects in Haiti.

3) Host a fundraiser. Organize members of your churches, your schools, and your communities to arrange an event that will raise funds for Haiti. Donations can be mailed or delivered to:

Habitat ReStore Seeks Funds for New Truck!

Habitat for Humanity of New Castle County's ReStore, the #1 source for new and gently used construction and household items in the community, needs to buy a box truck for increased donation pick-up. Products are picked up from a home or business and resold at a discount to the public. All sales proceeds go back into Habitat's homebuilding projects.

Please make a donation to help offset Habitat's purchase of a much needed truck for the ReStore, or please contact us if you can donate a used (less than 7 years old) box truck (17 feet or greater in length). Please visit http://www.habitatncc.org/ to make your secure online donation today!
