BURNSVILLE, N.C. — North Carolina high school students are using their carpentry skills to build tiny homes for Helene survivors.
Mountain Heritage High School in Burnsville has a carpentry class where students are busy building a home for a family who lost everything, WTVD in Raleigh reports.
The project is part of a new partnership with the Rebuilding Hollers Foundation.
Their teacher said they embraced the opportunity to give back.
“It makes me feel very proud knowing that I am able to help and change someone’s life that is in need through not only school but building and just helping out those that can’t really help themselves,” Croix Silver, a senior at Mountain Heritage High School, told WTVD.
The high school hopes to continue to build two to four tiny homes a year.
