UNC-Chapel Hill students, volunteers and new homeowners met on Sept. 18 at the Habitat for Humanity "Build a Block" Dedication in Phoenix Place neighborhood to celebrate the completion of ten new homes. The homes were championed by organizations such as the Ram's Club as well schools like the School of Information and Library Science and completed in a record-breaking academic year. Here, Danita Thomas, 49, originally of Buffalo NY, and her son Ernest Wright, 17, pose with their new home.
