EWMBA eZine - Week of July 17, 2008

Enrich your MBA with an experience in housing construction!

Seriously, come join us in serving the community. The EWMBA program is partnering with Peninsula Habitat for Humanity to help provide affordable housing for low income families in the bay area.

We will be working on a construction project in Redwood City, but no special skills are needed. It promises to be a fun filled day and a wonderful opportunity to get to know some of your classmates better.

Enjoy your summer and I look forward to seeing you on August 9th!

If you have any questions or concerns please email me at josh_lauman@mba.berkeley.edu and for more information on Peninsula Habitat for Humanity visit their website at www.peninsulahabitat.org

What : Haas Habitat for Humanity Day
When: August 9, 2008 8:30 AM - 4:30PM
Where: 122 Lincoln Ave. Redwood City, CA 94061-2323

eZine publication information

The EWMBA eZine is a vehicle to help you publicize an event or cause you are organizing or any other announcement of interest to the EWMBA community.

The eZine is mailed out every Thursday. Due to various factors (jobs, MBA-spouse/kids, life, universe etc), we cannot guarantee a time at which we will mail out the eZine on Thursday.

Therefore, help us to help you by sending information early enough for inclusion in the eZine. For example, if you have an event early in the week, send us the event information by Wednesday of the previous week.

Most importantly, please don’t assume that everyone in the EWMBA check their berkeley.edu emails every 5 minutes. Believe it or not, some folks do not have home Internet access and/or check only once a week. Nothing wrong with that: we all live different lives. Therefore, last minute announcements are usually ineffective.

Enjoy the rest of summer,

The Communications Committee
