Hung Up On Habitat
Ardy and Elton Mendenhall are "Hung-Up on Habitat for Humanity." This married couple has been volunteering with Lincoln / Lancaster County Habitat for Humanity for more than ten years, measuring for and hanging the window shades in the newly built Habitat homes.
For more than 17 years, window fashions manufacturer Hunter Douglas has provided thousands of sets of custom aluminum mini-blinds to U.S. Habitat for Humanity affiliates including the Lincoln/ Lancaster County affiliate.
The Hunter Douglas commitment extends to the grass-roots level as well. Many Hunter Douglas employees serve as volunteers and administrators with Habitat affiliates and participate in annual workdays.
Ardy and Elton began their involvement in Habitat for Humanity through Ardy's work with The Home Builders Association of Lincoln (HBAL). She has participated in HBAL's Habitat Build in the past, and she and Elton continue to be a vital member of the Habitat for Humanity volunteer family.
