Dear Habitat friend,
Former President Jimmy Carter and his wife, Rosalynn, return from Haiti this week, where they — along with hundreds of Habitat for Humanity volunteers — built 100 new homes. Their namesake annual project, Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project, returned to Haiti for the second consecutive year to build homes, communities and hope with disaster-affected families in Léogâne, the epicenter of the devastating January 2010 earthquake.
I was moved by the tireless efforts of the volunteers, some working until the late hours of the night to make sure every home was complete. And I was reminded of the difference Habitat for Humanity makes in the lives of so many families around the world — particularly young Sapir, who was born mere days before in the same house I helped her dad build during last year’s Carter Work Project.
Your support helped make this year’s Carter Work Project a success.
I’d like to invite you to explore photos, stories and more from this year’s event:
Thank you for all that you do for families in need of safe, decent, affordable homes.
In gratitude,
Jonathan Reckford
Chief Executive Officer
Habitat for Humanity International
