CLEARLAKE, Calif. – When the Lake County Youth Services Center recently had its cooling unit stolen, resulting in an electrical fire, Habitat for Humanity Lake County was there to help.

A group of volunteer laborers came together to replace the cooling unit and worked to repair the fire-damaged facility.

“This is the sort of project our organization likes to get involved in, the chance to give back to the community to help make our county stronger,” said Habitat for Humanity Lake County President Richard Birk. “We were glad to be able to help.”

If you would like to volunteer, please contact Habitat for Humanity at 707-994-1100, or come by the group's office at 16285A Main St., Lower Lake.
