Immediate needs

• Do you need someone to rake your leaves, move furniture, touch up some paint or do yardwork? Students from the Kansas University Habitat for Humanity Campus Chapter will work to support their cause. Two Saturdays this month are set for the Hire a Habitat project, this Saturday and Nov. 21. Donations will help support Habitat’s mission through events, builds and student-led trips.

To request a volunteer for help around the house, call Joey at 314-623-5172, or send e-mail to kuhabitat@gmail .com. Just let us know how many volunteers you’d like, which date will work best, and any ways that we can best assist you.
