Meghan Parlette, a student at the University of Dayton, has been volunteering in the offices of Habitat for Humanity of Greater Dayton since August. As her time interning here comes to a close, she reflects on what she has learned in this experience.

Today, Susan stands in her new bathroom with gratitude and pride, thankful for the dignity, safety, and peace of mind that have been restored. Dayton Habitat and MVP’s work did more than repair a shower; it repaired confidence, comfort, and quality of life. Read Susan's story here!

Giving Tuesday is a global campaign focused on generosity. The international movement started in 2012 and has grown to a yearlong push for recurring acts of kindness. On #GivingTuesday, individuals are challenged to make a positive impact on their community through donations, volunteerism, advocacy, and random acts of kindness. Whether you make your contributions public by posting on social media with the hashtag #GivingTuesday or keep them private, Dayton Habitat is challenging its community to get involved with the movement!
