Drywalling is well under way at Cedar Hill Cross Road and already complete on two units. A local company was hired to install the drywall and prep it for all our volunteer and Team Build painting crews. Construction is moving along at a great pace thanks to all our volunteers and the support of local businesses. 

A Parade of Pink
On August 20 an enthusiastic team of women came to help us get the build site ready for scaffolding which is soon to arrive for the siding installation. They also cut and hammered on the perimeter joists which will support the back decks. Drywall is being installed by the pros but they were thrilled to have a team of women sorting the drywall scraps from regular garbage as it requires special disposal. Thank you lunch sponsor Thrifty Foods - our women worked up quite an appetite and were really happy to see lunch arrive! And special thanks to our hard-working women who helped build these beautiful four homes. 

Women Build Day
Generous in every sense of the word, our ‪#‎HFHV100k‬ women took on the task of installing insulation - it was only fitting as the day was "pink" from start to finish. Once again we are so very grateful to Starbucks Saanich Centre for providing morning coffee and tea and Panago's at Borden and McKenzie for delicious pizza, including their scrumptious gluten free offerings.

Young mothers, grandmothers and even a great-grandmother completed their tasks professionally and with much laughter and discussion throughout the day. Special thanks to Erin for being our on-site first aid volunteer and to Tom and partner families Amanda and Rick for keeping everyone motivated. Thank you!!
