Volunteer
John Giger
 Our spotlighted volunteer is John Giger. John is a retired engineer, and has great carpenter skills. He heard about our Year Round Program and did his first job for us in October of 2002. When he finished he said that he totally enjoyed helping out the homeowner, and to call him again.
Since his first project, John has contributed 430 hours to Rebuilding Together for a value of $23,220. He understands our mission and is a very compassionate man.
His projects have ranged from replacing exterior doors, building steps, and installing grab bars, to widening doorways for the homeowners who can't get their wheelchairs into their bathrooms.
In addition to his year-round work, John is a volunteer on Work Day with a church team, and has recently called our national office in Washington D.C. and offered to volunteer for our national project to help rebuild homes of low-income seniors damaged in the wake of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans.
John doesn't ever want credit for his work, and when given praise for his generosity and commitment to serving others, John will humbly reply, "I enjoy the work."
John is a first class volunteer and an absolute pleasure to know.
