Your fundraising webpage will remain online for some time after the Build-a-Thon. We encourage you to keep your fundraising going even after the event. This is a great way to continue to spread awareness about the Habitat mission and your connection to our work. If you receive checks directly from your supporters (before or after the event) please mail them to the affiliate of your choice and we will make sure they are reflected in your fundraising progress.
Dear (insert name(s)),
Habitat for Humanity is a hand up, not a hand out! Through the hard work, determination, and compassion of volunteers, family partners and supporters, Habitat builds lives, relationships and communities, one house at a time. Habitat for Humanity is a nonprofit housing developer dedicated to building safe, durable and affordable homes in partnership with low-income families.
Habitat for Humanity Seattle/South King County is hosting their 3rd Annual Build-a-Thon between September 27th and October 2nd. I am thrilled to tell you that I am participating! What is a Build-a-Thon? Much like sponsoring miles walked in a Walk-a-Thon, I am inviting you to sponsor my volunteer hours for Habitat and be a part of this exciting community event.
As a participant in the Build-a-Thon my personal goal is to raise $(insert fundraising goal) or more to help families in King County achieve the dream of first-time home ownership. You can help right now by sponsoring my volunteer hours with Habitat. It’s easy! Just go to www.habitat-buildathon.org to make a secure online donation today. If you prefer to write a check please make it payable to Habitat for Humanity and send it to (insert affiliate contact information).
Why is this so important? Because only 14% of King County housing is available to households earning below 50% of median income (HDC, 2006).This must change. You can lead the way by sponsoring my volunteer hours with the Habitat for Humanity Build-a-Thon!
