Monroe: Saturday, August 25th, 2010

At noon today the Habitat for Humanity had their long anticipated dedication of their new office/warehouse facility. Located conveniently at the corner of Monroe Road and Rocky River Drive the new facility will prove to be a great rally point for the many projects planned. There were of course plenty of dignitaries in the crowd as Mike Reese acknowledged all of the people and companies that took part in the massive building renovation. And the Union County Chamber was their as well providing the appropriate scissors for the ribbon cutting ceremonies. At long last the staff will have an extremely nice place to call home and Monroe can boast of a building re-tasked and re-fitted to state of the art levels. The new office space has been built out from the walls affording the staff a well thought out professional environment to conduct business in. In the rear of the building, plenty of space has been allocated for storage and warehousing of needed supplies for the many new projects on the books for the future.

The Union County Habitat for Humanity is a Christian, non-profit organization that builds homes for lower-income families in Union County, NC. Their web site offers information on the organization and opportunities for fellow Union County Residents to take part in their worthy cause.
