After a delay due to restrictions around COVID-19, we are ready for boots on the ground. We need 4-5 people to prep for painting the room we are refurbishing.
The Rotary Club of Minnesota Veterans selected and funded the first recipient of a grant / service project earlier this year. Haven for Heroes offers housing for challenged veterans - and their children in 2 privately run 4-story cottages. Back in January, we met Bart Ward for a tour and recon of facilities and the cottage we plan on refurbishing with our $20,000 Foundation Grant. We will be working on preparing a family recreation area. We were delayed until the building was structurally sound and then the stay at home order stopped progress. In the meantime, our grant has gone even further as some essential worker companies donated time and materials to keep the project going!
The are now prepared for volunteers. We need to form a team of volunteers ON SATURDAY, JUNE 27 in the morning. The project will be scraping and sanding for old cement/plaster wall prep. Some manual and power tools will make the project easy. Please contact Bob Keller with questions.
