Young Professional Singles Build

Saturday, March 22, 2008

Are you looking to make a difference, have fun and meet other socially-conscious New York City singles? Join Habitat-NYC in our first-ever Singles Build. We are looking for 25 women and 25 men (between 21 and 40) to be construction-workers-for-a-day. To keep the event balanced, we ask you to sign up with an unattached friend of the opposite sex. Participants will learn how to install metal framing or hang drywall, working with a small team in the morning and changing teams in the afternoon.

When you and a friend sign up to build a wall, you also commit to raise a minimum of $300 (per pair) that helps finance the construction of a home. Raising your sponsorship is easy, with the help of our new online fundraising tool.

Due to the size of the building — and to ensure site safety — we can only accommodate 25 volunteer pairs on site. Habitat-NYC will provide lunch, a t-shirt and lots of mingle time.

Find a friend, click here to register, enjoy a rewarding day building homes for families in need and meet like-minded people.
