Habitat AmeriCorps Build-A-Thon a Success!
More than 530 AmeriCorps members–including our five great AmeriCorps members– from around the country came together in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, for the annual Habitat for Humanity AmeriCorps Build-a-Thon, June 11-17, 2010. During the event, more than 20 homes were built, rehabilitated or repaired.





Ahimed Hussein Bati and Badatu Shegeda Korbino live with their four children in a three-bedroom apartment with problems that the manager will not fix. There are a broken closet and bedroom doors, a hole in the living room floor, and problems with the bathroom plumbing.
