Volunteers needed


Dear All,

Work is scheduled to begin on Veronica's House - the house that we are building in partnership with Habitat for Humanity TT. Those who are familiar with this initiative will know that it came to be after I worked on the mini documentary Invisible, which featured HIV positive 'Veronica' and her two children (one of whom is also HIV+).

Volunteers are required for the manual digging of the land on Saturday 2nd and Sunday 3rd of August from 7:30 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. both days (with rest breaks in between).

27 volunteers are needed to complete the task in 2 days:
(i) 20 volunteers for digging (male and female volunteers are welcome and no experience is necessary, but volunteers should have the stamina to dig the land).
(ii) 7 volunteers for tying of steel

Each volunteer is asked to bring sturdy gloves and a shovel.

If you or anyone you know would like to volunteer for this first stage of the construction of Veronica's House with Habitat, please e-mail me (see top right side bar for e-mail) as soon as possible with your name(s) and contact information.

We would like to confirm numbers by mid next week. Confirmed volunteers will be sent further information and detailed directions to the location.

Thanks.

Elspeth
