The next deadline is coming up for Wisconsinites to get on the do-not-call list for telemarketers. If you want to be on the list that goes out April first, you have until Sunday (Feb 28th) to register. And if it’s been two years since you’ve registered, you’ll need to sign up again in order to stay on the list. The state’s consumer protection agency says more than two-million phone numbers are on the no-call list. Forty-four percent of those are cell phones. You can register on-line for going to Wisconsin-Dot-Gov and clicking the do-not-call link. Or you can sign up by phone at 1-866-9-NoCall.

The Fuller Center will build homes in Haiti in partnership with Lazarian World Homes–beginning as early as March.

Lazarian World Homes designed a 16′x16′ home using styrofoam blocks, concrete and rebar that can be built for less than $3,000. The house forms will be assembled in the Dominican Republic at a plant Lazarian World Homes already has established there.

Encourage your friends or church to sponsor a home in Haiti.
