Location: 206 Sullivan Street, Greenville, SC 29605
Want to help put some finishing touches on a Habitat Home? Pulse is collaborating with Habitat for Humanity & needs extra hands for a build on Saturday, December 5th from 8 a.m. to noon. Tasks will include putting on primer inside, finishing interior trim, painting exterior and interior doors, and building the back porch. There are 17 spots for Pulse members to join as a group to fill these spots to help provide neighbors in our community with a nice place to live. It should be a fun day for us all to learn some building skills. Most work will be done inside the house but dress warm just in case you are working outside.

YP BLOG: Paying It Forward
By Jessica Pate
The night of the first 2015 Pulse Social at Dave and Buster's, the snow was  falling. Having driven in snow for the first time last year, I'm justifiably unconfident in my winter driving abilities. But, I had signed up to volunteer at this social and let's be honest, I never willingly miss a chance to socialize (especially with the great people in Pulse). I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Dave and Buster's and kept checking the snow throughout the night while procrastinating leaving the great atmosphere at the social.
