On Friday morning, Suzette Bonin, one of the Habitat homeowners, shared with volunteers pictures of her home destroyed by Hurricane Rita.
Volunteers that have come to Kaplan over the past three weeks from churches across the US and Canada have brought Suzette and five other families closer to having simple and decent places to live.
Construction will continue this week. Check back daily for updates and photos!
