20th Anniversary Celebration

2008 marks the 20th anniversary of Habitat for Humanity East Bay. They also plan to construct their 200th home this year. To help celebrate those milestones as well as celebrate Earth Day, Habitat East Bay held a community celebration at the Edes Avenue worksite during today's build-a-thon. There were booths with information about different aspects of Habitat's work, info from solar sponsor PG&E, and Wells Fargo had an eBus out to help educate people about finances, computers and homeownership, as well as provide free internet access. There were snacks and games for kids, and one of the completed houses was open for people in the community to tour and see what one of Habitat East Bay's green-built houses looks like.
