FUNDS FROM THE SEPT. ONLINE AUCTION FOR HABITAT FOR HUMANITY NEEDED NOW MORE THAN EVER
Stop and consider the following not-so-fun facts:
· The price of lumber has skyrocketed 377% according to Habitat Metro Denver since May of 2020! This significant increase has disrupted homeowners’ plans for completing projects and has affected Habitat’s ability to build new homes!
· Habitat had to limit their volunteers due to COVID 19, forcing them to pay more money to hire contractors.
· Revenue was down due to the temporary closures of their Re-Stores, which sell used materials to off-set some of Habitat’s costs.
· Construction delays caused by the pandemic resulted in glitches with their supply chain and longer waits for supplies.
To help Habitat continue their vision of a world where everyone has a decent place to live, WPUMC will hold an online auction from September 11 through September 22, 2021. You support is needed now more than ever! The profits from this auction will go directly to the building of a Habitat home. Some of the items that will be auctioned include:
· An authentic Avalanche jersey signed by goalie Philipp Grubauer. This purchase includes a proof of authenticity letter.
· 3 or 4 nights in a beautifully updated 4 Bed/3.5 Bath Eagles View Townhome. It is located in Breckenridge, CO in Warrior's Mark just off Peak 9/10.
· A Saturday behind-the-scenes tour of Channel 9 and meeting some of the weekend on- air personalities
· Gift certificates to Washington Park Grille, which is with walking distance of the church
This event is coming soon, so mark your calendars. There is also still time to add items to our auction! Email Carol Nelson at customtrainingllc@q.com to see how you can get into the fun!
