Hammers of Honor
Thanks for extraordinary support
Over
the years Habitat for Humanity of Bulloch County has benefited from the
generosity of many in the community. These Hammers of Honor go to
individuals and groups who, within the last two years, have provided
extraordinary support to Habitat.
Habitat Home Shop
Since
the ReStore's founding in 1997, Mr. W.R. "Bobby" Smith has supported
Habitat by allowing us to use the building rent-free. Thanks to his
generosity, and the hard work of many, many volunteers, including Warren
"Spike" Jones and Ori James, the ReStore has raised more than $400,000
since it's founding to help provide simple, decent homes in the
community.
Many businesses donate or discount their products or services for Habitat homes, and we appreciate each one. On July 24, 2005, we recognized three businesses which have donated their services or materials for all five houses we had built in Statesboro Pointe. They are:
- Southern Plantation Turf, sod for all five houses
- Southern Voice and Data, telephone and cable wiring,
- Deloach Exterminating, termite prevention treatment.
- Other local businesses which have donated for several houses include
- Parrish Portable Toilets
- City of Statesboro Natural Gas Department, which has provided gas water heaters and heating air handlers.
- National partnerships
The following provide materials for Habitat homes through national partnerships with Habitat for Humanity:
- Whirlpool, stove and refrigerator
- Yale Locks, door knobs and locks
- Valspar, paint
- Square D, electrical boxes and circuit breakers
- Larson, storm doors
- Hunter Douglas, mini-blinds
