Anthony Hill: He’s in His Element
Well, he was…until he decided to make a gift of it to raise money for Pioneer Valley Habitat. Through Habitat for Humanity International’s Cars for Homes program, Anthony donated his 2004 Honda Element to be sold, a generous portion of the proceeds then coming to this local Habitat affiliate as unrestricted revenue. Anthony is also in his element on the Habitat construction site. But that’s another story.
It begins when he came to this country as a 7-year old émigré from England with his parents, and even at that young age he felt the improvement in his life due to his change of circumstances. That understanding of what a new life can offer someone, his desire to do something to give back to his community after the 2016 election, and a little encouragement from his (and Habitat’s) friend Walt Kohler, brought him to Pioneer Valley Habitat’s build in North Amherst in 2017.
A likely retirement activity for a former medical microbiologist? Sure! Anthony had two summers’ experience as a carpenter’s assistant as a teenager and his more recent work helping Valley Light Opera’s set design team under his (work)belt. Equally compelling, he draws inspiration from Jimmy Carter who, like Anthony, served in the Navy and who spends his retirement doing what Anthony describes as “meaningful volunteer work with a concrete outcome.”
When thanked for all he has done for Habitat, Anthony says, “I have to argue with you about that. Habitat has given to ME. I have made good friendships with people from all walks of life, we’re all there because we enjoy the hands-on stuff and giving back together.” And, he adds, “I can put my hand on something and say, I did that.”
