Livingston, TX, April 15, 2023 – Dedicated volunteers from Rotary of Livingston and Habitat for Humanity of Polk County, TX gathered on Saturday, April 15, 2023, to landscape the yard of the 20th Habitat home in Polk County. Rotary of Livingston gave a generous grant with a matching grant from Rotary District 5910 to provide a rock driveway, construct flower beds, purchase plants, place a small walkway and lay pallets of grass to complete the new home. Volunteers from both organizations helped to make the funds go further by providing the labor for the flowerbeds, walkway, and grass.
Habitat for Humanity of Polk County, TX would like to thank Ray Gearing for advocating for Habitat during the grant application process, current Rotary President, Andrew Boyce, and Coordinator Will Watson, for managing the project, and all the hard-working volunteers who labored.
