Learn more about Michal’s experience:

What inspired you to serve?

I wanted a chance to give back to my community while learning new skills.

This opportunity will allow me to gain hands-on experience in construction while also learning about the impact that safe and affordable housing can have on families. I am excited about the chance to break stereotypes in the construction field and to be part of a team that values growth and service!

What do you enjoy most about serving?

I love getting to meet new people almost every day and the conversations I have with them

What do you like most about your Habitat for Humanity?

Everyone is so nice and welcoming
