Every year since 1984, former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and his wife Rosalynn have led Habitat for Humanity International’s Jimmy Carter Work Project (JCWP). These week-long blitz builds, held in a different location each summer, bring together volunteers from all over the world to help jump-start Habitat’s mission in areas that desperately need its help.
After two overseas projects, JCWP returns to the US in 2003. This year's project will include build sites in the towns of Anniston, Alabama and LaGrange and Valdosta, Georgia, three rural Southern communities sorely in need of relief for their poor residents.
If you'd like to make a difference here in the South while working alongside students and adults from dozens of different countries, world leaders and dignitaries, Habitat for Humanity founder Millard Fuller, and even Nobel Laureate and former US President Jimmy Carter (and his wife Rosalynn), don't pass up this wonderful opportunity!
