CITGO Employees & Alumni Building
Another Habitat Home in Tulsa

     Tulsa CITGO alumni and employees are busily working on the 6th CITGO sponsored Habitat for Humanity home in Tulsa. We appreciate CITGO's continued support of the Tulsa CITGO Alumni Group's involvement with Habitat for Humanity. Not only is CITGO's support vital to this project, volunteers are essential.
     The walls were raised on Catawna Harris' new home on Saturday, September 12, 2009. CITGO volunteers, along with co-sponsor Asbury United Methodist Church volunteers, are working on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
Anticipated completion of the home is November 2009.
CITGO Alumni Habitat House
       CITGO Alumni have not only built directly on Habitat houses in Tulsa during the Soring and Fall, but they also get together on other Wednesdays to work in the woodshop. There is a substantial amount of prep work needed for houses, such as building and painting the cabinets and building window frames. This work must be done before the crews go out to the building sites for the homes.
     The founding members of the CITGO Alumni Habitat builders are getting older and want to encourage new members/volunteers (women included) to lend a hand to this worthy cause. Tools and training are available. Just bring a willingness to help and have fun. They work most Wednesdays from 9 am until ......they get tired!

CITGO Alumni Habitat House
     Call George Margalski for more information at 494-8868 or go to www.habitat-tulsa.org. If building isn't your thing, MANY other volunteer opportunities exist to lend a helping hand in other ways.
     Habitat for Humanity was founded over 20 years ago and without federal funding. Over 200,000 houses worldwide have been built by Habitat which have housed over 1,000,000 people, helping break the cycle of poverty one home at a time.
     This is not a give-away program. Families are required to work 500 "sweat equity" hours in preparation to become home owners. They pay a zero interest, no down-payment mortgage of approximately $300 per month.
     To date, Tulsa Habitat for Humanity has built over 200 houses for low income families. Tulsa CITGO alumni and employees are proud of the impact they have had in Tulsa.
GET INVOLVED ... you can make a difference!
