Penn College Helps Habitat on 'Civility Saturday'

Tuesday, November 4, 2008

Penn College supplies Habitat with helping hands Students from various majors, including Web design, IT security and welding, joined other Penn College representatives to assist Greater Lycoming Habitat for Humanityat three homes Saturday. Many of the students helped clean up around the houses, as well as mix and lay down cement. The group worked together to put up Styrofoam insulation on the sides of a house, while some of its members helped finish setting plywood on an entire side of a roof. Whether it was working on scaffolds or cleaning up tons of drywall, the mild weather made for a great Civility Saturday on which to help the Williamsport community.
