I spent this morning at the New Hope construction site in West Bremerton, Washington. It’s being managed by the Habitat for Humanity of Kitsap County. When finished, there will be 18 new homes on 2.7 acres. Volunteers are just about finished with 7 of them.

I met one of the future residents. She’s married with two children ages 1 and 3. Once they move in, she is going to adopt a third child. They are tentatively scheduled to move in on the 20th of December. Of course, this all depends on whether the house can be finished. They really need volunteers to help meet that date. When I was out there today, there was only a handful of people.

If you live in the area and want to help with this or any other Habitat for Humanity project, check out the Habitat for Humanity of Kitsap County website. For a current list of dates when volunteers are needed, click on the Volunteer Up icon.
