Caption from metadata for 535-2970-1: "Peter Emlick and Peri Hansen are eagerly anticipating moving into their own home at Burnaby's Habitat for Humanity development. The couple were amongst the first volunteers at the project, and the first elligible buyers. Habitat for Humanity builds low-income housing for people who would otherwise be unable to afford to own their own homes. Most of the construction is done by volunteers."
