What's new at Habitat Lakeside?
On June 10, 2019, we welcomed Emily Kretz to the Habitat for Humanity Lakeside team as a Summer VISTA (Volunteer in Service to America). She'll be serving with us in this volunteer role for 40 hours per week for a full 10 weeks this summer and will be helping with Rock the Block neighborhood outreach and a crew leader recruitment program.
Emily is an Oostburg native. She shared the following about herself: "I just graduated from the University of Kentucky (UK) with my BA in Psychology and Social Work and I'll be returning to UK this fall to complete my master's degree in social work. I'm excited to learn a lot this summer at Habitat as it's a different role from my internships I've had so far through school. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, crocheting, and playing with my guinea pig, Nemo."
