NWI Kids Build Playhousrs

Our John Will Anderson Gary Club kids were featured in The Times of Northwest Indiana for their participation in a special playhouse-building event at the Tolleston Opportunity Campus! In partnership with Habitat for Humanity of Northwest Indiana, Club kids joined local youth and volunteers to paint colorful playhouses. The event marked the first time the local Habitat for Humanity chapter partnered with the Boys & Girls Club to involve volunteers under age 16 in building playhouses.
