For as long as Mr. John has been in business, the company has donated its equipment and services to numerous charities and fund raising organizations. With so many organizations looking for help, it was increasingly difficult to decide which to choose. It became necessary to select one organization to be our “charity of choice” and we decided that organization would be Habitat for Humanity. It was clearly a perfect fit: Habitat for Humanity builds homes and Mr. John provides portable restrooms to builders.

Through the work of Habitat, thousands of low-income families have found new hope in the form of affordable housing. Churches, community groups, and others have joined together to successfully tackle a significant social problem -- supplying decent, affordable housing for all. Today, Habitat for Humanity has built more than 200,000 houses, sheltering more than 1,000,000 people in more than 3,000 communities worldwide.

Mr. John supplies all local Habitat partners with job site portable toilets, free of charge. We are so proud to be a part of this important endeavor!

Letters of Thanks from our Habitat Partners 

Raritan Valley Habitat for Humanity builds modest, affordable homes for hard working, low-income families who are committed to building better lives for themselves and their children. In June 2007, RVHFH completed 24th, 25th, 26th and 27th homes, located on donated property along Route 202 in Bernardsville. Our next project will be the construction of four more homes to be located near Franklin Boulevard in Franklin Township, Somerset. We expect to begin building these homes in August.

For many years, Mr. John has provided port-o-johns for all of our construction projects, saving us the expense of renting these units. These savings are passed along to our partner families, making these homes more affordable. We are grateful for the ongoing support of Mr. John!

Metropolitan Camden Habitat for Humanity has had a busy year! The Camden Redevelopment Agency has agreed to help us obtain 40 more properties within the Cooper Plaza neighborhood. We broadened our mission to include job training for unemployed youth. We also moved into our new office and hired 4 new staff members.

We are looking forward to another exciting year. We are more than half way done with the second phase of the Sixth St project. We're also busy rehabbing our former office. New corporations and faith-based groups are sponsoring homes, and we hope to see more partners get involved at this level. All of our recent moves have been geared toward ramping up housing production.

Metropolitan Habitat for Humanity would like to say thank you for being our partner.

On behalf of the Board of Directors and local families in need, thank you for your commitment to Morris Habitat for Humanity through your 2006 contribution of two portable toilets, which were used during our event for the victims of Hurricane Katrina, called Operation Home Delivery. As you know, Morris Habitat's role in this unprecedented effort to rebuild the Gulf Coast was to construct frames for the "home in a box". Our short-term effort will provide long-term assistance for a community that was desperately ravaged.

2006 promises to be an excellent year for Morris Habitat for Humanity because we have gone from 2 homes a year to a record breaking 11 planned projects in the next two years. This phenomenal growth is only possible because of the extraordinary generosity of supporters like you.

As we continue to work with families who have a desperate need for better housing, we hope you will continue in partnership with us.
