Description:	Habitat for Humanity is an international organization that provides families in need with newhomes. Souths Habitat Club helps to build these houses several times throughout the year. InSeptember, they began a new build; several club members shared how they were involved andwhy the clubs contributions were important. Though the house is not yet completed, SouthsHabitat Club will finish it and several more houses throughout the course of this school year.Habitat houses are built for qualifying families that currentlylive in substandard housing. Substandard housing could meanthat there is no ramp for a child with a wheelchair, there ismold in the house, or anything in between.-senior Baileigh GoodlettStudents constructed joists and really laid the groundwork forall of the future improvements that will be made.
