Albion
College Habitat for Humanity Model for
Michigan Schools
ADRIAN,
SIENA HEIGHTS GROUPS COME TO LEARN ALBION'S
SUCCESS
Posted Wednesday, September 26, 2001
ALBION, Mich. –“Albion
College is one of very few college in the
country totally supported by college and
student-raised funding,”
says Albion College Habitat for Humanity
Adviser, Erin Elder.
That distinction is the reason
representatives from two other Michigan schools
will spend this weekend in Albion, participating
the College’s “Habitat Weekend Excursion,”
which is open to the public.
Friday,
Sept. 28, the “Excursion” will begin at 7
p.m. in the College’s Bobbitt Auditorium with
a presentation by Anna Beningo, executive
director of the Michigan Habitat for Humanity.
Beningo will present a report on
Habitat’s current role in Honduras, which she
has just visited, and will discuss Habitat’s
future in Michigan.
Representatives
from Adrian College and Siena Heights College
will spend the weekend with Albion College’s
Habitat for Humanity group, studying the
group’s success as a student organization.
They will also assist with work ongoing
at the group’s current Habitat project in
Albion.
The
presentation is free and open to the public, and
the public is also encouraged to work at the
Albion Habitat house.

Elder at 517-629-0433 or eelder@albion.edu.
