Pictured amidst volunteers, ESNDC staff, and Habitat staff are Jimmy Carter (center), Walter Mondale, Representative Betty McCollum, and Mayor Chris Coleman. This event was the highlight of ESNDC's year and a huge boost for the neighborhood. Further, it cemented ESNDC's and Habitat's partnership that has continued and will continue to produce Habitat homes and Brush with Kindness projects. |
