Thrivent Builds with Habitat for Humanity – New York City Thrivent Financial for Lutherans and New York City's Lutheran community are funding an affordable home in Habitat-NYC's 41-unit Atlantic Avenue complex in Ocean Hill-Brownsville. Through a unique challenge grant, Thrivent Financial will provide matching funds on a 6 to 1 basis for donations by Thrivent Financial members or by Lutherans. If you are a Thrivent Financial member or part of a Lutheran congregation, we invite you to join us for Thrivent/Lutheran-specific volunteer and fundraising opportunities supported through this initiative. Lutheran Young Adults Build
Lutheran Women Build Fall, 2008 Habitat-NYC will host our second Lutheran Women Build, a one-day volunteer event that brings together Lutheran women from all walks of life to raise hammers and funds to create homes for families in need. Join in this unique volunteer opportunity for women and girls (16 and older), where you'll have fun and make a difference by supporting and building the Thrivent home in Ocean Hill-Brownsville. When you sign up to raise a hammer, you also commit to raise a minimum of $250 that Thrivent will match on a 6 to 1 basis. That means Thrivent will donate $1,500 for every $250 you raise! And raising your sponsorship is easy, with the help of our online fundraising tool. This tool will help you create a personalized, e-mail campaign to raise support through friends, family and colleagues. If you’d like to be a part of Lutheran Women Build 2008, contact Andrew Olsen at aolsen@habitatnyc.org for more information. Other Opportunities There are also opportunities for individual Lutheran congregations to volunteer at our Ocean Hill-Brownsville site and to raise or donate funds that Thrivent will match on a 6 to 1 basis. If you would like your congregation to get involved, please contact Andrew Olsen, Faith Relations Associate, at (212) 991-4000 ext.320, or by e-mail at aolsen@habitatnyc.org. |
