Habitat For Humanity Planning Stratford Build Next Year

Habitat For Humanity is looking for help as it plans a new build in Stratford for 2017.

Volunteers can learn more at a community meeting at 6pm Thursday night at the Stratford Library.

The organization is also searching for a suitable piece of land where they can build a family home.

The first step in the process is putting together a steering committee to oversee the project from start to finish.

Volunteers can work as fundraisers, with families, volunteers or builders.

Habitat For Humanity is also looking for donations including products or services from Stratford area businesses or tradespeople.
