Hey guys,
Great meeting on Monday! For those who couldn't make it, Dana Owens
spoke to us about how Habitat works as an organization (apparently
Habitat Int'l is going to start expecting affiliates to double the
number of houses they build every 5 years!). He also spoke about the
college-sponsored house, and gave us some fundraising tips (we can talk
specifics at the next meeting).
Basically, we are going to try to raise $10,000 for a Habitat house this
year. Throughout the year and at the end of the year, we will assess
our progress and decide if we want to put the money toward the
college-sponsored house or toward an MIT-only house. The fundraising
committee is working on a proposal that we can show to our potential
donors about what Habitat is and why it's important for them to support
an MIT-sponsored Habitat house.
We will be having exec meetings once every two weeks. Please fill out
the following Doodle by *Friday night*, so I can choose the meeting time
and let you guys know asap.

Also, we will be going out to dinner as a group on Sun Nov 2 at 5pm!
The club will cover $10 per person for dinner. Let me know if you can
come, so I can make a reservation. Also, I'm open to suggestions for
the restaurant!
So, by Friday night, I need you to:
- Fill out the Doodle chart
- Tell me if you can come to the dinner
Have a great weekend! :)
