Habitat for Humanity Build-a-thon

2011 Build-a-thon

Saturday through Tuesday was Habitat for Humanity East Bay's annual Earth Day Build-a-thon. Hundreds of volunteers came together to frame 7 houses for deserving families at the second part of the Kinsell Commons project at Tassafaronga Village in the Woodland neighborhood.

I'm still tired after four long, physically demanding days, but it's a good tired. Read and see more photos at the Habitat East Bay Thrivent Builds blog. Also check out the nice video on Oakland North.

Many thanks to all who donated to support Habitat. Over $100,000 was raised to help build more affordable, green housing.

  1. Great video at Oakland North. Such great progress on the 8 houses, Gene. Almost like the old fashioned barn raising.
