HabiFest 2002 - a national celebration of awareness

On April 10, 2002, SJC along with 100 other campus chapters celebrated HabiFest 2002.

The goals of this project are:

• to raise awareness about the presence of and need for Habitat for Humanity International
• stimulate current and recruit new volunteers, chapters and affiliates to build more homes
• to highlight housing situations across the United States and across the world

Saint Joseph's College campus chapter, along with Prof. Fred Berger's Core X "Christian Principles of Habitat for Humanity" class, celebrated HabiFest with door-to-door awareness teams; building a yard barn on campus; hosting a soup kitchen lunch in the college cafeteria; and a nail-driving contest.
