Where are you getting your pumpkins this fall?

Help Habitat for Humanity of Metro Denver turn pumpkins into homes this Halloween. Three different pumpkin patches in the Metro Denver area will be donating a portion of their pumpkin sale proceeds to Habitat’s homeownership program.

In past years, these donations have earned over $35,000 for Habitat homes. Head on down with your family to one of the sponsored patches and help us raise even more money this year. Every pumpkin purchased at one of these locations will help a family in need receive the home of their dreams.

Join us for Habitat's first annual Opening Doors Auction!

Habitat for Humanity of Metro Denver’s first annual Opening Doors Auction is fast- approaching. This week, visit the Denver ReStore to preview the talent of thirty-five artists who have turned used doors, windows, and cabinets from the Habitat ReStores into pieces of art. These used home building materials have been reworked, refigured, and repurposed into one-of-a-kind artwork, each defined by its artist’s unique style.

Please join us as these re-creations are auctioned off at a complimentary wine and cheese event on October 9^th at the Denver ReStore. The funds raised at this event will help open doors of homeownership for low-income families across metro Denver.

What: Opening Doors Auction

When: October 9^th, 2011 from 2 to 4 p.m.
