Wichita State University has partnered with Wichita Habitat for Humanity to build a house near campus for a Wichita family with three children.
The first step is a wall raising set for 9 a.m. Wednesday, Dec. 1 at 1304 N. Lorraine St.
Construction of the house will involve multiple WSU organizations including the WSU Office of Administration and Finance, the WSU Foundation, the WSU Shocker Neighborhood Scholars, and the WSU Engineers without Borders.
Danielle Johnson, executive director for Wichita Habitat for Humanity, said she is looking forward to their future partnership with WSU and what it means for future projects to benefit other families.
After this initial build, WSU plans to continue its work with Wichita Habitat for Humanity, and there are already projects lined up for January and February 2022.
