Volunteers donate and build habitat house

Posted: Updated:
LONGVIEW, TX (KLTV) -

Another habitat home is being built for a needy East Texas family, and some of those building it, were the same that donated for its construction.

Workers began construction of a habitat home in October on south Park street in Longview. 'Convergys' donated a thousand dollars to the project, and then dozens of it's employees volunteered to help build it. Volunteers felt they should put more into it than just a donation.

The home is expected to be finished by December 24th.
