Rainbow Build II<br />

continues<br />

TUCSON - Rainbow Build II,<br />

a new home being built by Habitat<br />

for Humanity and the Tucson<br />

LGBTQ community, is currently<br />

underway.<br />

To build such a home, LGBTQ<br />

groups and individuals (of any persuasion)<br />

contribute money for materials<br />

and then work together to<br />

construct it.<br />

The 2005 Tucson Rainbow Build<br />

was the first LGBT build in the nation<br />

and was featured in the July 19,<br />

2005, issue of The Advocate. Some<br />

35 Tucson organizations joined together<br />

in that effort.<br />

The second house will be targeted<br />

for an eligible LGBT family.<br />

As of mid-March, Habitat of<br />

Humanity had reached $67,000 of<br />

its $85,000 goal for the project and<br />

still needs additional funds.<br />

Please contact Joseph Howell to<br />

donate and for more information,<br />
