SPRING 1999

Women of Public Health Go
Wall-to-Wall for Habitat

This spring, more than 100 School of Public Health women have donned workclothes and picked up hammers, putty knives and other tools for a very special project partnering with a women-only team from Blue Cross-Blue Shield of North Carolina on the Wall-to-Wall Women Habitat for Humanity project to build a new home off Airport Road in north Chapel Hill.  Those joining in the effort have included students, faculty, staff, their mothers, sisters, neighbors and other friends.  The home is slated for completion this summer.
