Northwoods Habitat for Humanity to hold Hammer and Eggs Breakfast
Mar. 11—BEMIDJI — Northwoods Habitat for Humanity has announced two new activities to promote its mission of building affordable housing in the Bemidji area. A Hammer and Eggs Breakfast will be held from 7 to 8:30 a.m. on Thursday, May 8, at the Bemidji Eagles Club. The event will feature a buffet-style breakfast and a presentation from Habitat Minnesota President and CEO Cristen Incitti. Attendees will also have the opportunity to meet partner families who are working on building and purchasing homes this year, a release. While the breakfast is free, those who will attend should RSVP at (218) 751-4649 or email info@ by April 30. In conjunction with the breakfast, Habitat is holding a raffle with the top prize of a She-Shed valued at $8,000. A total of 1,000 tickets will be sold for $20 each. Tickets are available now at the ReStore and from Habitat volunteers. The She-Shed, which is being built by Habitat volunteers, will be on display at the ReStore and occasionally at local businesses such as Buena Vista Ski Area, Ace Hardware, Lueken's Village Foods, the Cenex Station on Anne Street and Splash Xpress Car Wash. The drawing will be held on May 8 at the conclusion of the breakfast. Those who have purchased tickets don't need to be present to win. The breakfast and raffle have the dual purpose of raising awareness and funds for building new homes, the release said. Plans for the construction of one home have begun, with the potential for two more to be built in the community this year. Funds from these events will go directly toward construction costs, the release said. Volunteers are also needed for these builds. On-site training is provided for individuals or groups. "We are really excited to host a breakfast this year," Executive Director Geri Hickerson said in the release. "It is a great opportunity to connect with our supporters and also introduce Habitat to those who are interested in our mission of building simple, decent, affordable homes."
