Habitat for Humanity

In June 2013, several of our employees volunteered to soak up some sun and warmth while learning firsthand what it takes to build a house.

Reno’s Habitat for Humanity (http://www.habitatforhumanityreno.org/) gave us the opportunity to swing hammers and wield paint brushes in a manner that would have made Michelangelo proud. Under the tutelage of Mark, the site manager, we painted, sawed, and hammered like fiends. In the end, we were hot, sunburned, and dirty, but we left with a sense of accomplishment and the knowledge that whoever would be moving into the houses we had worked on would reap the benefit of us having given our all.
