DIANE GRABS SOME WATER FOR THE TEAM
FROM THE LUNCH TENT. |
It is all the home stretch now. Are we used to the heat? Barely, and we continue to consume water distributed by our team and the staff. Lots of full water bottles.
It is "full press" on to finish most of this house today and clean up the area. While some are working on brick laying, others are moving excess bricks by wheelbarrow to the storage area.

| LINDA AND DAVID MOVING THE BRICKS. |
Skilled Cambodian guys installed the roof trusses and then the tin roof. It was amazing to see them, high on the slippery roof in bare feet, as they worked handing up material, and then drilling and screwing it together. By day's end, most of it was in place.

NEIGHBOR HOMEOWNER DAUGHTER,
A SYMBOL OF HOPE FOR CHILDREN'S FUTURE. |
Building with Habitat is about giving hope and a future to families in need of clean air and safe homes. It is the children whose future will have new opportunities. Giving them hope and a chance for a better life. Schooling and self esteem. It works.
