Habitat for Humanity


I wrote this story in my first few weeks as a Journal intern. The story was about two women who worked to get homes through Habitat for Humanity. This article was published in The Middletown Journal on July 9, 2007.

What I learned: Nowadays people tend to have more than one job, which can help when you want stories. It turned out that the Middletown Habitat for Humanity president also worked for the municipal court! While signing in our crime reporter to observe a hearing, he informed her that the families had just moved into the homes, and the rest is history.
