Former President Carter lends IJpH
Habitat for Humanity a helping har^
HOUSTON (AP) — Former
President jimmy Carter plans to
be among 6,000 volunteers
who hope to begin construction
on 100 homes next week in
Habitat for Humanity's largest-
ever United States project.
The ecumenical organization
that has built 65,000 homes
worldwide intends to raise walls,
roofs and plasterboard for the
houses next Monday and Tuesday
on vacant lots in two inner-city
Houston neighborhoods.
"It's exciting, challenging and
always unpredictable," Carter said
of his past home-building experi
ences. "Rosalynn and I don't con
sider it a sacrifice. Each year that
we go, it's an adventure for us."
Habitat's founder is excited
about the possible record-setting
week during what's dubbed the
1998 jimmy Carter Work Project.
"The stage is set for us to make
history," Millard Fuller said.
Carter will join a legion of
1,500 out-of-towners and 4,500
local volunteers.
Fuller said he told visitors get
ting their first taste of Houston's
trademark heat and humidity that
they must remain philosophical.
"I just explained it would be a
worthwhile spiritual experience,"
he said. "Because if you build 100
homes in june in Houston, you'll
never consider going to hell.1()4 TH YE
Carter has been working^
Habitat since 1984 andiscra
ed for its vast success inre|
years. The organization!
just 1,000 homes by its
niversary in 1986, but it era
48,000 over the next 10 yi
with Carter aboard.
By giving the inner-cityp
decent, affordable housi
Carter said the organizatia
helping to create more pra
live people.
"They haven't felt
were part of the commum
Carter said, referring tothedi
franchised poor who usually
habit the program's hop
"They were alien no matterwl
they existed. They get a
they become a taxpayer, they
come constructive citizens."
About 64,000 Houston
households face unafford;
rents and poor living condi
according to a governments!
released this spring.
To qualify for Habitat hoi
residents must be first-time ha
owners and earn beta
$11,000 and $23,000 a year.
The houses range in size
tween 1,100 to 1,250 squ
feet and will priced in then
$40,000 range with a no-inl
