 Dawn writes: "I am very happy to be joining the team here at Habitat for Humanity of Cape Cod and especially to be working directly with Habitat's wonderful volunteers. I come to Habitat after a variety of different job experiences, including teacher, theatrical wardrobe supervisor and city guide for Portland, Maine. For the past few years, I've been working as a volunteer myself, in a variety of capacities, while also caring for my two children at home. I am delighted to be working alongside Habitat's volunteers, who have impressed me with their dedication, compassion, skill, and willingness to give their best."
