It was a moment of great pleasure when we the students of Great Lakes got a chance to meet with Former US President Jimmy Carter at Lonavla on October 30th. President Jimmy Carter was in India to visit Malavli village near Lonavala in Maharashtra to take part in a project that involves building houses with local families in need.
The event was held from Oct 30 to Nov 3 and he also visited a village nearby Chennai to support Tsunami Victimcs in South India.
The Jimmy Carter Work Project (JCWP) brings together thousands of volunteers from India and abroad to build houses. Typically, low-income families participate in the construction of the houses they are eventually allotted.
A total of 100 houses are to be built. The houses would be 360 square feet semi detached, with a living room, kitchen, toilet, bathroom and verandah.
Its a matter of proud to the students of Great Lakes to be associated with a project which supports the habitat vision of every person.
