Habitat for Humanity: Building Homes for the Underprivileged
NAAP-NY has been honored to be part of two builds this year with Habitat for Humanity. The
experience has been a humbling and much rewarded experience. Both Builds have been in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn.
We hope to continue our efforts with Habitat in the future. Thank you to all volunteers that have come out!
NAAP NY along with other groups has gone as a group of Arab-Americans to volunteer for Habitat for Humanity.
As you know, Habitat for Humanity builds affordable housing for low income families all over the world with
the help of volunteers.
It's a great way to help out and give back to our New York community.
