This year’s Raise the Woof campaign will have teams building from their home or workplace, rather than gathering together for a big event, but the goal is the same: To raise money for Habitat for Humanity.
Habitat is looking for teams to participate in the September 26th event. From their website:
In order to keep everyone as safe as possible, all dog house building will be done at each team’s home or place of work and the event will be live-streamed on Facebook and YouTube! Prizes will still be awarded to the top teams in 8 different categories, and all the completed houses will then be moved to our ReStore for the public to admire (and bid on!).
Habitat for Humanity of Champaign County’s mission is a world where everyone has a safe, decent, and affordable place to call home. Over 50% of renters in Champaign County are overburdened by their housing costs, and there is limited access to affordable housing. Every dollar donated will go towards making affordable housing a reality for qualifying home buyers and each Habitat home buyer in turn gives back to the community that gave so generously to them.
Teams can register here.
