We began another house June 2, 2007 in financial and construction labor partnership with ten other churches in connection with Greater Columbus Habitat for Humanity. Two or three of our volunteers are typically needed from each church for each working Saturday 8 a.m. - mid afternoon. Volunteers can come and go as their schedule permits. A smaller group works on Thursday's.

Family Name: The family that we built for is the Ali family. They are a Somali family. The husbands name is Abdiwali. He works for the Columbus Health Department. He speaks very fluent English. His wife understands English very well but is not real comfortable speaking it. They have 4 children ranging between 2-6 years old.

Volunteers Needed: As on last year's house, we need 20+ volunteers. Most work is performed on Saturday's. A small crew works during the day on Thursdays. Typical workday: 8 - 3 PM. Lunch is served. Volunteers can come and go as their schedule permits. No experience is necessary; leaders on the site will provide direction and training. Besides volunteers with tools, volunteers are needed to help with the Steering Committee, to be a Food Coordinator for every 8th Saturday, and to be a Coordinator to recruit volunteers to work each Saturday during construction.
