Foundation Service Project
Norfolk, Virginia
This year, the IBTTA Foundation service project was held at the Habitat for Humanity South Hampton Roads (Habitat SHR) ReStore facility. It was a stone’s throw from the hotel where the Maintenance & Roadway Operations Workshop was held. Habitat SHR is dedicated to building and preserving communities in the South Hampton Roads area. Their motto, ‘Hand-Up; Not a Hand-Out’ reflects their mission to assist low income families, including veterans, build and purchase homes. The IBTTA volunteers were 65 members strong and our generous sponsors brought $35,000 to the project. The financial support along with the people power allowed us to complete a paving project, repair and replace a security fence, srtipe the parking lot, repair/build an ADA ramp and many clean-up and organization projects within the ReStore facility itself.
