5 new homes: 5th Anniversary Build stories, videos & photos
The Fuller Center’s 5th Anniversary Build was a huge success! Between March 15 and 26, hundreds of volunteers from as far away as California, Idaho, New York and Georgia converged in Louisiana to raise five houses in the state where The Fuller Center started helping families five years ago. The event was the culmination of nearly five years of building efforts that grew out of our response to a housing crisis created by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.
See below for stories and photos from each of the three build locations.
Northwest Louisiana Fuller CenterShreveport is where The Fuller Center launched its first building projects in 2005 following Hurricane Katrina and an influx of low-income evacuees. More than 100 volunteers raised the 42nd and 43rd houses built by Northwest FCH.
