Ms. Manor builds a home

Gina Schaefer (who owns "a few cool hardware stores" in Logan Circle, Glover Park, and Tenleytown) and several of her community-minded, professional woman friends have banded together to form Ms. Manor. They have pledged to raise $145,000 to build a house for Habitat for Humanity by Mothers Day 2007. You can help them raise money by going to their website www.msmanordc.org and donating money to sponsor one of the items necessary to building the home, i.e., a light fixture or grout or a kitchen cabinet.
