Saturday, September 8th at 590 Gateway Place, Woodbury, MN 55129
Twin Cities Habitat volunteers are known for building homes for hardworking, low-income families. This Saturday September 8th they’ll build a playground for an entire community. The $20,000 playground is in the middle of the Garden Gate development where Habitat volunteers have built 15 homes (and will build 19 more in the coming years). However, the playground will be available for all families to use – not just the homeowners in the Garden Gate development. Volunteers will be working on the playground from 8am to 5pm on Saturday, September 8th. This will be a great story of bringing families together to build something positive for their community.
