A Million Pennies!

Please don't forget to bring
your pennies into the ReStore
to support our "Million Pennies" campain.  Together our idle
pennies (you know, the ones
sitting around in a jar in your
home) can add up to real
money that will help Hale Aloha
O Hilo Habitat for Humanity build
a home with an East Hawaii
family in need. 

 

Our goal is to raise one million

pennies!  So, if you have pennies
lying around the house, please
bring them in to the Habitat ReStore located at:

 

700 Manono Street in Hilo

 

Additionally, you can help us
collect pennies by taking up a collection from work or from
your classroom! 

 

Every penny counts!

New Faces At The ReStore

As many of you know, our ReStore Manager Polly MacRoberts left us at the end of March.  She is now

enjoying her new life in Maui.  Although, we miss her,

we wish her all the best!

 

In the interim Rex Lauer is currently filling in as our 

temporary ReStore Manager.  Rex has been
volunteering with the ReStore, consistently for the
past year.  We appreciate him filling in during this
transition period.   
   

         Rex

 

Additionally, Arnold Catt has joined us in the

ReStore as a temporary employee.  He has been 

volunteering with the ReStore, since September

 

2010.   

 

 

 

          Arnold 

 

 

They're both doing a great job at the ReStore
and we're happy to have them on board!

Mahalo For Your Kokua!

As we near the end of construction on the Kahe'e

home, we'd like to give a heartfelt "Mahalo"
to all of our volunteers for sharing their time,
experience and knowledge with Hale Aloha O Hilo
Habitat for Humanity!

 
Final inspection and approval of the Kahee home

is IMMINENT.  A home blessing potluck is being
planned for late May. 

          Inspection

Volunteers are continuing to build each Saturday

from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., but the need for build
volunteers has been significantly reduced.  If
you still want to help, please consider taking a
shift at our ReStore.  Mahalo!
