I thought spring was well and truly here, until today.\u00a0 As I write this message I\u2019m looking out at fresh snow! \u00a0Hoping this is just a blip!\u00a0 Regardless of the weather this is the time that many of us start our annual spring clean! Our ReStores are the ideal place to donate your unwanted items to and not only your household items, but we also accept excess building material, making it a great place for shoppers doing home renovations.\u00a0 I recently met a customer that has completely renovated her home with items from the ReStore, visit one today, they are packed with lots of goodies!<\/p>\n
Volunteers spend an enormous amount of their personal time helping Habitat for Humanity in lots of ways and it was lovely to recognize two of them that go above and beyond.\u00a0 Jett and Will recently received a King Charles 111 medal for their impact to our mission. We wish we had medals to recognize every single one of our volunteers.<\/p>\n
We\u2019ve now made it easier for you to get involved with our new fancy dandy events calendar.\u00a0 Volunteers can view the calendar to see in advance the community engagement events we have scheduled and sign up for their preferred shifts.\u00a0 We have lots happening again this year and this spring we will be heading further north than ever before, we\u2019re going to Kamloops!<\/p>\n
This month our supporter spotlight is shining bright on Traine Construction.\u00a0 This community focused organization has been a HFHO supporter for many years and was instrumental in my journey to becoming the Habitat Okanagan CEO, which started by me being a volunteer on the Peachland build.\u00a0 We are very grateful for their support which hits every touch point of Habitat.\u00a0 Congratulations to Traine on their 25th<\/sup> anniversary of being in business.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,2_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.habitatforhumanityokanagan.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Signature-Andrea-Manifold-CEO.png” title_text=”Signature-Andrea Manifold, CEO” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”-43px|||-57px|false|false” custom_padding=”|||0px|false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,2_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”-76px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n Andrea Manifold<\/strong> [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I thought spring was well and truly here, until…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":12753,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14,29],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12752","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog","category-month-in-review"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.habitatforhumanityokanagan.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12752","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.habitatforhumanityokanagan.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.habitatforhumanityokanagan.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.habitatforhumanityokanagan.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.habitatforhumanityokanagan.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=12752"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.habitatforhumanityokanagan.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12752\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12755,"href":"https:\/\/www.habitatforhumanityokanagan.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12752\/revisions\/12755"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.habitatforhumanityokanagan.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/12753"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.habitatforhumanityokanagan.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=12752"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.habitatforhumanityokanagan.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=12752"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.habitatforhumanityokanagan.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=12752"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
