Here are two pictures of
before and after on the installing of a new closet in our bedroom.
These doors were
purchased from an organization here in town and, indeed, the nation that
was started by President Jimmy Carter to help families have affordable
homes. Volunteers donate their time in labor to build the homes.
Occasionally a documentary shows President Carter in his work clothes as
he assists in the actual manual labor with Habitat Humanity.
The store here in town
is a warehouse to hold material donated to the project. The materials are
recycled and are offered to the public for sale, also. This money goes
back into the organization for more building. I was especially thankful to
find these doors at a reasonable cost, one that I could afford. They are
used doors and Rodney had to do some manipulating to make them work but
you can see the difference they make. He built a new frame for them and
used hinges instead of the slides they had on the bottom and top.
