West Orange Habitat for Humanity is proud to be either a sponsor or benefactor of various projects throughout the year which help to promote community service and unity. As these events take place, we will post them here.
Saturday, August 4, 2007 - Furniture Sale at WO Habitat Warehouse We had a "furniture" garage sale from 8 am to 5 pm at our warehouse at 114 S. Dillard St., Winter Garden, FL. Even though our Home Store has not come to fruition yet, we have been given donations of home furnishings that we sold all day. Thank you to those that stopped by and purchased merchandise, or just said hello. We appreciated your business and having you there. Many thanks to Bob & Patty Tate and their volunteers that put this event together.
Friday, Saturday & Sunday, May 4-6, 2007 - West Oaks Mall Event We hope that you were able to come over to the West Oaks Mall and join us as we kicked-off our first event celebrating the partnership between our affiliate and the mall. The event took place on Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. We were very excited to be working together and look forward to future events. For each dollar donated, folks were able to sign 2x4's that will be used in our next home construction. They were then able to remove a "family portrait" from the panel to represent helping to eliminate substandard housing in West Orange County. A big Thank You goes out to all who donated.
Saturday & Sunday, April 14 & 15, 2007 - 10:00 am to 6:00 pm - Festival Among the Lakes, Camp Down, Windermere, FL The Rotary of Windermere sponsored their annual Festival Among the Lakes. They had a boat raffle, food booths, boat show, art show and other raffles that will benefit local charities; West Orange Habitat being one of them. We had a booth at the festival and enjoyed seeing everyone who stopped by during the festivities. The park was open both days from 10 am to 6 pm. Saturday was an absolutely beautiful day; unfortunately we can't say the same about Sunday. A storm front came in and made the morning a rainy mess with high winds, thunder and lightning, and a cold front on it's heels. We want to thank everyone who came out to volunteer at our booth and those who "just came out" for helping to make this annual event a success!
Saturday & Sunday, April 2-3, 2006 - We participated in the "Festival Among the Lakes", hosted by the Rotary Club of Windermere at Camp Down. This was a wonderful event with beautiful boats of all sizes on display, craft booths, raffle prizes and delicious food! Raffle tickets were sold by the Rotary Club of Windermere for a chance to win an 19 foot Regal Bowrider. Proceeds will benefit Windermere Rotary Charities. Below are pictures of our booth where we were promoting our upcoming Asher Neel Memorial 5K Race, along with giving 'kids of all ages' a chance to try their hand at hammering a nail and sawing a board.
