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."
Caption from metadata for 535-2970-2: "Art Wosminity takes a break from drywall taping in one of the units."
Caption from metadata for 535-2970-3: "Volunteers help clean up the site."
Caption from metadata for 535-2970-4: "Peri Hansen says she's most thrilled about "finally having a view" from the kitchen of her new home, still under construction at Burnaby's Habitat for Humanity. "
Caption from metadata for 535-2970-5: "Mario Galdamez takes in the view from the deck of his townhouse unit at Burnaby's Habitat for Humanity."
Caption from metadata for 535-2970-6: "Habitat for Humanity projects are built largely by volunteers who exchange "sweat equity" for the chance to live in the developments. But at Burnaby's Habitat for Humanity, on a recent Saturday after heavy Fall rains, Mitch Uh felt like he was giving "mud equity.""
Caption from metadata for 535-2970-7: "Kerry MacLaren and Sandy Stephens sort through wood scraps at Burnaby's Habitat for Humanity project."
Caption from metadata for 535-2970-8: "Volunteers at Buranby's Habitat for Humanity project leave behind their signatures on a sign in the worksite's lunch area."
