For our May HAHD event the LA team volunteered at the Atwater Habitat for Humanity ReStore in Los Angeles.

This time around we merchandized and restocked a couple sections to move some back stocked donations onto the floor for their big memorial day sale.

ReStores are discount retail stores that offer homewares at very good prices and 95% of the earnings go to the construction of affordable housing that Habitat for Humanity is known for.

Next event is on June 16th so RSVP!

See you there!

IHAHD LA 2017

For the 2017 International Have a Hard Day Los Angeles Event we volunteered at the DTLA Mini Maker Faire hosted by the Los Angeles Public Library. 

We helped with crowd control, directing faire attendees, participating in some faire “making” to encourage participation and delivering water to the staff, makers, and volunteers.

It was a great event to participate in as there were so many interesting booths. The LAPL is a beautiful huge library that has amazing murals and many floors with many rooms with dedicated genres.

Thank you LA team for coming out for this International event! 

See you at the next one!!

For our August event we went to the Habitat for Humanity Santa Clarita construction site and helped prepare the site for a snow event for the veterans and their families.

We organized materials that were spread around the site into manageable groupings, swept up saw dust and picked up nails left behind. We also picked up and disposed of any trash that was left behind.

Last but not least! we relocated a lizard to a safer environment!

This event was a great success! Thank you to all the HAHD captains who participated.
