HANE does Habitat for Humanity!

PWP would like to send kudos and special thanks to our team of teachers and parents who volunteered on behalf of PWP and our school all day at a Habitat for Humanity of Metro Denver work site this past Saturday, April 6th. The organization recruits community volunteers to build affordable homes for needy families. Habitat for Humanity has served more than 1 million families around the world, completing the construction or repair of a home at the rate of every 4 minutes. All of the HANE volunteers said it was a fun learning and bonding experience. We plan to do this again next school year, so stay tuned for an opportunity to participate.
