FW: SUPERBOWL BUILDATHON 2009

The day is here, this morning forty people come out and build with us, on our sites with a tailgate party sponsored by Stew Leonards of food and beverage for the volunteers.....Build time looks good, the fans are getting ready and the bus is ready to arrive.

 

During this day, could you sacrifice one extra sandwich, or beer or hoagie and donate to Habitats SuperBowl Build effort.    We dedicate this effort to Anthony a football player from Yonkers, who scorred six touchdowns....a great year..then two weeks before Thanksgiving, a bullet in a drive by pierced his brawny chest, and he survived more than first and ten, but the rest of his life.  God has watched over you, I shared with Anthony from his hospital room, on Thanksgiving Day! I know he said, I know...he was not too happy that day, and the bullet will remain in his body..but it is a strong reminder to me and to all of us to change our neighborhoods, to get guns off the streets of kids hands...and to help move he and his family ASAP into a great home. 

 

Anthony is up and around, back to school, thank God..and may this be his best Superbowl Sunday ever, knowing that he might not have had a chance to live to watch it this past Thanksgiving!

 

We give Thanksgiving to you, and for you and ask you make a special Superbowl Buildathon donation today in honor of trying to help us finish Anthonys home with much needed support so he and his family next year will watch the game in their new Habitat Home.

 

You are all WINNERS when you help Habitat.

 

God bless,
