Blue Water Habitat for Humanity is wrapping up a build in Marine City this month for the Menkel Family. There was a lot of community support and good cheer at the Home Dedication. Bob and Toni are excited to plan Thanksgiving dinner in their new home. Thanks to all who came out!

We have a new project starting October 19! We'll be working on a rehab on Maple Street in Port Huron and are looking for groups of volunteers as well as individuals to join us on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
