On Sept. 19, several members of the 102nd Intelligence Wing and their families selflessly volunteered their time to help build homes in Harwich, Mass., with Habitat for Humanity.
Master Sgt. Kimberly Harris, 102nd Air Operations Group first sergeant coordinated the volunteer effort for the wing. "It's great to be able to lend my former construction skills and labor to help them out for the day," said Master Sgt. Joseph O'Brien, 101st Intelligence Squadron supervisor.
Habitat for Humanity is a nonprofit organization that was founded in 1976 to build safe, decent and affordable houses and shelters for families in need. Throughout the day the volunteers dug holes, framed houses, painted and provided a multitude of services to get the houses ready for their new owners. The 13 houses which are located on Gomes Way are also ECO friendly homes. They were constructed with environmentally friendly materials that also help reduce energy consumption.
Habitat for Humanity volunteer coordinator, Hilary Greene, was especially grateful for the volunteers who helped with this project. "It's really great that people from the base came to help in big groups with qualified people who know how to put in a good days work."
