All of us here at Habitat for Humanity La Crosse Area gave extra thanks this past week. The Tuesday after Thanksgiving, we celebrated the sixth #GivingTuesday along with organizations and individuals around the world.
#GivingTuesday is a global giving movement. Following Black Friday and Cyber Monday, the day is an effort to remind us all of how many people are in need even while we shop. This year, Habitat La Crosse used the day to give thanks for all of the supporters who have helped make this year great for us. This support has been especially crucial during the launch of our All Hands In Capital Campaign. Staff, volunteers and homeowners highlighted how donors, shoppers and volunteers keep our organization running. The community has shown incredible, heart-warming generosity during our matching challenge. Through the end of the year, any donation will be doubled through a generous matching challenge, up to $300,000. The giving being done in this community is overwhelming, and we are so thankful for it all.

This week, Habitat for Humanity La Crosse Area launched its new Veterans Build program. On Thursday, Nov. 8, 20 veterans volunteered to help with construction on one of our Habitat homes. Another 20 volunteers will be working on the same home Saturday, Nov. 10. Spots for these build days signed up very quickly. Thanks so much to these veterans for continuing to serve our community!
