The sound of song, prayer and then hammers took hold of the Habitat for Humanity work site on the first build day of the 35th Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project in Mishawaka, Indiana.
As the 36th annual Carter Work Project kicked off in Nashville, future Habitat homeowners, volunteers and donors, local leaders and musical talent, as well as the former president and first lady, convened at the historic Ryman Auditorium and then on the build site to usher in the weeklong build.
Check out this year’s house photos, featuring volunteers from the 2019 Carter Work Project in Nashville, Tennessee.
Carter Work Project volunteers lend a hand to the Charlotte community’s work building a thriving neighborhood at the historic site where an all-Black, segregation-era school called Plato Price stood. The once-empty lot is being transformed into an affordable, vibrant neighborhood with single-family homes, walking paths, nature areas and a community meeting space.
The family preparedness plan contains four steps that families should take to be ready for any disaster.
When a disaster strikes, your family might not be together, and communication channels might be down. It is important to plan how you will contact one another and discuss how you will communicate in different disaster situations.
Because you might not have much time to evacuate when a disaster strikes, it is important to have a plan in place to get your family out of danger quickly and efficiently.
Through Habitat for Humanity’s Cars for Homes program, donated vehicles raise money to help more families. Just a few clicks online can get your donation in process.
These families are coming together to build homes, hope and community alongside volunteers and President and Mrs. Carter during the Carter Work Project 2018.
