Habitat in search of ‘Winter Warrior’ volunteers

Affordable housing doesn’t take snow days amid cold winter months and that’s why Habitat for Humanity of Dane Co. is asking you to bundle up and lend a hand. The non-profit housing organization is recruiting ‘Winter Warriors’ to help with housing construction. “We cannot do what we do without volunteers, there’s something special about being able to serve others on a crew like this,” started Habitat CEO Hilary Parker. “You have a special bond with the people you build with or work in the ReStore with. It gives our volunteers a sense of purpose that otherwise they’d have trouble finding, I see it everyday and it’s truly beautiful.” Habitat for Humanity’s team says during the winter months of Dec. through March volunteer staff drops roughly in half compared to summer months marked June through September.
