Join the Hammers & Harvest Build Challenge
September 1 – December 23, 2025
Together, let's build homes and hope this harvest season!
Ove jeseni, istaknite se i napravite razliku pridruživanjem Hammers and Harvest Build Challengeu - praktičnom volonterskom iskustvu za preduzeća u zajednici. Okupite svoje kolege, formirajte volontersku ekipu i pomozite nam da izgradimo pristupačne domove za porodice širom Cedar Valleyja.
Bez obzira da li zamahujete čekićem ili farbate okvir, vaše vrijeme na gradilištu direktno podstiče misiju Iowa Heartland Habitata - i održava naše gradnje na pravom putu tokom hladnijih mjeseci.
