People of God in Partnership with Habitat for Humanity Detroit –Living out our Faith…Building Hope…Demonstrating Love
Your faith group can help Habitat with funds & volunteers by hosting a Work-A-Thon. Schedule a day to bring a group to volunteer to help us, and secure pledges from family members, friends and co-workers for every hour you volunteer.
Habitat for Humanity Detroit Work-a-Thons are easy to organize.
Everyone knows about walk-a-thons and bike-a-thons where you raise money for a worthy cause. Habitat offers you the same opportunity by asking you to consider making your next volunteer day a Habitat Work-a-Thon.
Our Work-a-Thons are a great way to double your support of Habitat for Humanity Detroit. Each person on your team gets a pledge from family, friends, neighbors, and co-workers to support the number of hours he/she plans to work on your team’s project.
Habitat for Humanity Detroit Work-a-Thons are easy to organize, and it’s much more fun than just showing up as a group.
Here’s how it works:
- Pick a day that works for your group and contact Sandra Cobb at scobb@habitatdetroit.org or 313-521-6691 ext. 107.
- Pledges can be done by hour or a flat donation for the day you work at Habitat.
- Come to the work site for an exciting day of building homes and leave knowing you helped double the service you provided toward making a family’s dream a reality.
- Collect pledges in return for the day’s work. Checks should be made out to Habitat for Humanity Detroit. Pledge sheets and pledges should be turned in to the group leader and sent to the Habitat Detroit office (14325 Jane Street, Detroit MI 48205).
