Members of the Young Lawyers Section (YLS) volunteered with Hartford Area Habitat for Humanity on Saturday, March 30. The volunteers helped build a home by hanging sheetrock and installing insulation, to contribute to Hartford Habitat's mission to provide safe, decent, affordable housing in the Hartford community.

"Volunteering with Habitat for Humanity is an incredible experience. The site leaders and fellow volunteers are all extremely compassionate and dedicated to furthering Habitat's goal of partnering with those in our community who need a hand up—not a hand-out,” stated ABA Young Lawyers Division Liaison Lauren M. McNair. "I am thankful to the Ryan T. Lee Memorial Foundation for their generous sponsorship of the CBA YLS Habitat Build Day, and would encourage others looking for ways to give back to get involved in this fantastic organization."

The event was generously sponsored by the Ryan T. Lee Memorial Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to identifying effective ways to help individuals reach their goals and realize their dreams.
