Build Updates!

• NEW SPRYFIELD BUILD DATES
  Due to a number of circumstances, the Habitat HRM Board has made the difficult decision to postpone the Spryfield Build to Spring 2009. We thank our sponsors, volunteers and partner families for their ongoing support and look forward to working with them again next year.
  
  If you would like to volunteer for the Spryfield build, visit the Get Involved page for more information.

The Habitat for Humanity HRM South Shore Chapter is on the move!

Their first ever build is underway, and the Laybolt family can't wait to move into their new Habitat home. Habitat would like to thank the Honourable Judy Streatch, Minister, Department of Community Services who presented a cheque for $50,000 to the South Shore Chapter of Habitat for Humanity HRM. This contribution will assist in the construction of homes for deserving families on the South Shore.
