They are doing it because much like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton , people realized that a racket could be run on pushing this BS and they created an entire curriculum flush with graduate level degrees that churns out people that otherwise would be unemployable in traditional business functions. Long sentence over.

10 years,


It took you 10 years to figure that out? I was ask to help 12 or so years ago. It didn't take me long to figure out who got the houses and how ungrateful they were. They Bitched about having to help and most of them were plenty capable of getting a job. Same thing with the fema houses several years back. Find someone to walk you through the paperwork and bam my tax dollars builds you a new house. All the while the rest of us had insurance or came out of pocket to rebuild..frick volunteering for anything now days..

Jimmy Carter being involved should have told you years ago that this org was eventually going to collapse into itself like a black hole. You shouldn't waste another moment of your precious time for them.

Every single one should find something worthy to do with their time instead. If HFH wants new houses, they can magically Wakanda them into existence from now on.

They'll change their tune when the donations dry up and the volunteers fail to show.

That is the goal. They want to destroy these things. They are happy when these measures make people quit or stop giving.

I lived in Americus, GA, for a while (Habitat HQ). I was done with them after seeing the condition of the house just a year or so after working on it.
I can also attest to not being able to recall any person of color at all on the volunteer teams I was a part of.

I volunteered for another organization for veterans, and it was the same way. Easily 75% were white men. White privilege to have all that free time to volunteer, I guess?

Visit the homeowner. Scope the work. Detail supplies needed. Solicit donations. Solicit volunteers. Organize the workday from tasks to lunches and running to store for supplies. Out of pocket for extras. Cleanup afterward when many volunteers left. Visiting homeowner afterward and making final tweaks that volunteers missed.

Find a good conservative church and make them the focus of your charity and volunteering.

Are you just triggered by the word "diversity?" That email seems to be more directed at your experience with HfH management, not about diversity of volunteers.

Technically, the email isn't even from HfH.

Keep playing this game. You dance when they say dance, you speak when they snap their fingers.

Just notice how often you have sweep this stuff up into the "no big deal you're just paranoid and/or triggered" category nearly every time.

DEI ideology is a core strategy of the democrat party. It's HUGELY important to them and billions are spent by dems and their biggest donors to force feed it down everyone's throats.


The entire Virginia gubernatorial election was centered on DEI teaching.


But you keep dancing and gaslighting.

Isn't this a volunteer organization? If so, how do you make a volunteer work force "more diverse"? Dumbest woke shite I've ever heard. Ranks right up there with SA telling donors to reject their white heritage! These people forget what donations mean.

I think they're trying to figure out how to get more black and other minority group people to volunteer. That's a good thing, no?


No. Diversity and inclusion are the left's code words for anti-white when they are too scared to actually say anti-white.

Equity is the desire for equal outputs regardless of inputs. Also known as communism.

If someone is volunteering to do charity work, what difference does it make what their skin color is?

The only ones dancing here are you and the OP. I'm not going to stop doing things for charity because I read so much into an email survey.

Then got this email message today saying they need to be more diverse. Mind you every build I have been on has been almost 99% white men working on it, not counting the family who are required to work a certain number of hours (usually black or hispanic). I guess they don't want my volunteer time (away from my famoly) anymore because it isn't diverse enough.
If white people aren't welcome-- don't go anymore.
