Each year, The Hartford allows their employees to take a free day for volunteer work. This year, I participated in the Habitat for Humanity build here in Syracuse. There are so many new HFH homes going up in the "bad" sections of the city and it seems to be a real success. I was very happy to participate and hopefully my hard work will have made a difference in someone's life. My only gripe...next year I'm volunteering in the summer so it's not 50 and rainy and muddy!! I suppose, however, it isn't fair of me to complain since I had a nice hot shower and warm home to return to at the end of the day! I encourage anyone who has the opportunity to do a build with this great Christian organization.
