The Jewish Federation Connecting with Community presents The Work of Central Berkshire Habitat for Humanity with executive director, Carolyn Valli.

Central Berkshire Habitat for Humanity builds strength, stability and self-reliance through affordable home ownership.

Central Berkshire Habitat for Humanity is an independent affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, a global nonprofit housing organization working in nearly 2100 communities across the United States and in 70 countries around the world. Habitat for Humanity affiliates are local Habitat for Humanity organizations that act in partnership with and on behalf of Habitat for Humanity International. Each Habitat affiliate coordinates and pays for all aspects of Habitat home building in its local area.

Habitat welcomes people from all walks of life to partner in serving and creating a better community for everyone who lives here.

Founded in 1992, Central Berkshire Habitat for Humanity has been providing home ownership opportunities for people that are working hard to provide decent housing for their families for more than 25 years. They serve Central and Southern Berkshire County.

This free program is part of the Federation’s Connecting With Community Series and will be followed by a kosher hot lunch. Lunch is a $2 suggested donation for adults over 60 years of age or $7 for all others. Advance reservations are required for lunch and can be made by calling (413) 442-2200 before 9 a.m. on the day of the program.
