  FEBRUARY/2010
Greetings!

Just a short five years ago, flood waters ravaged the homes and businesses of our families and friends. We counted on each other as we learned and practiced strength, grace and humility. Today, we are asking you to extend your reach to families of another community in great need of our help. 
Our neighbors in Haiti were dealt a devastating blow on Jan. 12th by an earthquake, exacting a massive toll in lives and property damage.
 
Our affiliate has committed to raising $5,000 to help with Haiti's recovery. Please take a minute to review your options (listed below) about how you can support this effort. Donations in any dollar amount will make a difference.
  
On behalf of our board of directors, I thank you for your continued support.

Chairman of the Board, Habitat STW
