Nine
Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools high school students woke up bright and
early on Saturday, Feb. 11 to help raise the walls of the McCants family’s
future home.
Rachel
McCants’s house will be the 14th Habitat house funded and built by youth in
partnership with Habitat for Humanity of Forsyth County. Student volunteers
represented the Career Center, Reynolds, Reagan and John F. Kennedy high
schools.
John
Christian, a carpentry instructor at the Career Center, also lent a hand
throughout the wall raising. Last month, students helped to build the walls,
which were raised in a matter of seven hours along with installing Styrofoam
and assembling scaffolding.
The
next youth-build day is scheduled for Saturday, Feb. 25, and any high school
student age 16 or older is welcome to volunteer.
Please
contact Gretchen at Gretchen Cundiff or (336) 245-9048 for more information.
