LAHFH Needs

LAHFH is continuously striving to serve more  families, stretching resources to the maximum. To be successful, we will require more building sites, cash, tools, equipment and construction materials.

Primary Need - Land
Prior to building, we must have a place to build. To meet our objective for 2008 and beyond we must obtain the following building sites:
  • Crosby/Ironton - 2 sites
  • Brainerd - 6 sites
  • Breezy Point - 3 sites
  • Park Rapids - 1 site
  • Pine River - 2 sites
  • Akeley - 1 site
  • Nevis - 1 site
  • Walker - 2 sites
  • Hackensack 2 sites
Call LAHFH Executive Director, Kevin Pelkey, if you can donate or assist in obtaining land which will provide a satisfactory building site. 218-828-8517
