Cathedral Community
Habitat for Humanity "Big City Build"
Habitat for Humanity Auckland and the Holy Trinity Cathedral are thrilled to be teaming up to build a new home for an Auckland family in severe housing need.
We would love you to be part of it.
Between March 10th - 25th the Cathedral entrance way on the corner of St Stephens Avenue and Parnell Road and will be transformed into a building site. In these two weeks, with the labour and toil of hundreds of people from across Auckland, and alongside the Fa’afiu family who will be living in it, we shall build a home. Upon completion the home will be transported to Mangere, where the Fa’afiu family will begin their new life.
In order to achieve this great goal we need your help.
There are all sorts of different ways you can get involved, and all manner of tasks necessary to make this happen. We are seeking the following:
* Corporate sponsors
* Fundraising events
* Volunteers to help at the site, including catering, resourcing and liaison
* Teams to help build the home
* Publicity and awareness raising
* Churches and local groups to help promote the event
* Plumbers, Electricians, Roofers
During the build we also plan a number of events to publicise the build and raise awareness of the need of decent, safe and affordable shelter, for families in Auckland and around the world. Any weird and wonderful ideas will be considered.
