TurboSquid invites SIGGRAPH visitors to volunteer

TurboSquid invites SIGGRAPH visitors to volunteer for Habitat for Humanity.
SIGGRAPH 2009 is coming back to New Orleans for the first time since 2000, and four years post-Katrina. The TurboSquid team is very excited about hosting the event again, and eager to show everyone how far the city has come since August 29th, 2005. Still, there is much work to do, which is where you come in.

TurboSquid is inviting you to join their staff in volunteering on several ‘Habitat for Humanity’ home builds around the area. This volunteer-based service provides safe, affordable housing to those in need. The dates are Friday, July 31st, and Saturday, August 1st, just before SIGGRAPH. This is not only a great opportunity to help New Orleans, but also to get to know others in the 3D community face to face. In addition to working side-by-side with your fellow 3D artists, there will be a special TurboSquid party for those who participate.

To participate, please register with the online form by June 15, in the link below. This will enable TurboSquid to get a head count and make sure they have enough hammers, nails, and cool-looking construction hats to go around.

I urge you to join the TurboSquid team in helping to put deserving families back into new homes this summer and pitching in to restore this great city. If you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact Beau Perschall, VP at TurboSquid on bperschall@turbosquid.com.
