GCAAR Cares Presents Habitat for Humanity International with $10k Donation for Change for Haiti
2010 Board President Shelly Murray and the GCAAR Community Service Committee ("GCAAR Cares") presented Jose Quinonez of Habitat for Humanity International (center) with a fundraising check for $10,810 to help build core houses for the people of Haiti. Change for Haiti was established to support Haiti’s immediate and long-term recovery after the January earthquake devastated the country.
GCAAR Cares is matching donations dollar-for-dollar up to $25,000! We need you to support this effort by placing a container in your office to collect change. Just one dollar per member will raise $8,000! You can also donate directly online. For more information on Change for Haiti or to get involved, please contact Debbie Bell at dbell@gcaar.com.
