SCRAPBOOK

Here’s What Volunteers Said:

“Extreme Build was ﬂexible enough for me to help a few days andhelp make an impact on a family’s life.”“It seems such a simple thing - to give something of myself to enable someone elseto have a home. I think this is a part of being the presence of Christ.”“Extreme Build is a well organized and worthwhile project.”“I attended last year and I went home at the end of the week with a heartthat longed to do more.”“I attended Extreme Build to be a part of the wonderful work God was doingin the life of the Sharon family.”“I attended Extreme Build to serve God, to help a fellow human being,for fellowship and camaraderie.”“After spending 10 years with Habitat for Humanity I realize the importance of homeownership, especially for those who are trying hard but just can’t swing it.I have seen how the Extreme build has changed the entire outlook of childrenand young people, boosting their self-esteem and creating a desire to do greaterthings. It’s a great work that we do and I hope it will continue ad inﬁnitum.”“It was a part of our mission trip. I thought the idea was interesting but was unsureof why we should go ‘all that way.’ Boy was I surprised. Not only was the distancewell worth the drive, but the people we met were just super.”
