As the final semester of classes wrap up, Viterbo will be hosting a week-long event called the "Green Exchange" where students can donate usable items for others to take. Habitat is recruiting volunteers to assist under the "Free Cycle Event" tent which may include lifting items and walking a short distance between the drop-off area and student housing.
To check in, volunteers will meet faculty Cameron Kiersch (319-321-5136) in Room 155 of the Reinhart building. Parking is available directly to the south in Lot I on the corner of Viterbo Drive and Jackson St.
Of the four volunteers needed each day, someone will (1) take leadership by directing donations (2) keep an inventory list (3) help with moderate lifting under the tent and (4) do more heavy lifting of desks and couches. If you have any restrictions please contact Habitat's Volunteer Coordinator Kelly before registering.
In Support of Habitat for Humanity of the Greater La Crosse Region
At Habitat, we envision a Coulee Region with ample, quality housing options and healthy, sustainable communities for all. We believe that decent, affordable housing should be a matter of conscience and action; we realize that there are people in our community who are living in inadequate conditions and that joining together we can provide a hand up – not a hand out. Our values are as follows.
Committed to reuse and environmental sustainability: We believe healthy land and water are essential to a sense of home and belonging. Sustainable practices are embedded in our programs.
Rooted in faith in community: We honor the traditions and values of our founders, and we respect the needs and challenges of our local community as we together seek solutions for affordable housing.
Driven to innovate: We believe our mission calls us to be creative in our work. We look for fresh solutions and partnerships to solve the problems facing our community.
Called to advocate: We demand forward-thinking from our elected officials and work to keep the critical need for quality, affordable housing at the forefront of policy makers’ minds.
