Building homes in Armenia a summer tradition for Florida’s Charlie Takesian
Now 82, Charlie Takesian of Ocala, Florida, recently returned from his 12th mission trip to build homes — the last 10 of those trips have been to the country of his forefathers, Armenia. In an interview with the Ocala Star-Banner, Takesian talks about why he serves every summer with The Fuller Center for Housing’s Global Builders program and whether he has any plans to slow down. Spoiler alert: After helping build 26 homes, he has no intention of slowing down.
