South Haven men help in 100-house building effort
During the week of Sept. 6-11, The Fuller Center for Housing built, renovated or dedicated homes for at least 100 low-income families as part of the second annual Millard Fuller Legacy Build. Three men from South Haven participated in the effort, traveling to Indianapolis to do so.
Tim DuBois, Jim Tomascak and Charlie Thell worked at the epicenter of the project, participating in the construction of eight new homes and the renovation of 17 others.
