Jordan Braymiller Sat. 9/2 After a long hard week of studying, the last thing I wanted to do on a Saturday morning was wake up early to hammer nails. I have heard so much about habitat for humanity from many friends, but the thought of waking up so early was not appealing. With the motivation of my friend, Heather Esposito, we discovered what habitat was all about this past Saturday. I was a little apprehensive about how I could help as I have had little experience in building houses. I also did not have a hammer, nails, or a measuring tape. I was worried that I wouldn't be of too much help, but what I learned this Saturday is all you need to bring are yourself and a willingness to help. I not only had the opportunity to work on a house this past weekend, I also learned a lot of what goes into the building of a house, and how easy it was to make a difference. Even if you don't have the tools or the "know-how," you can still make a difference. All it takes is a little motivation to get out of bed in the morning. So, bring a friend, bring yourself, and bring a desire to help out a great cause.

Working on the Habitat House has been both a rewarding and enjoyable experience. It's amazing how much can be accomplished in such a short amount of time with a group of students and faculty working together for such a great cause. I would encourage everyone to spend a Friday or Saturday at the site helping to give a family their own home.

I am a Pi Kappa Phi who helped work on the habitat house last weekend. I really enjoyed it, and I hope to go back very soon. I was impressed with the turnout and the amount of students willing to spend their Friday afternoon helping those less fortunate. I think those of us at PC have the ability to really help people and I was happy to see that potential put to use.
