R.I.P. Millard Fuller
Millard Fuller, founder of Habitat for Humanity, passed away this February. He was a self-made millionaire who chose to sell everything he owned, give the proceeds to charity and begin a life of service. Since 1976, Habitat for Humanity, with the help of volunteers and future occupants, has built over 300,000 homes worldwide. Janice Ivory-Smith, McDonnell Haynes Creative Director and the person responsible for our involvement with Habitat for Humanity Toronto remembers a charismatic and dedicated man, "I had the privilege of hearing Mr. Fuller at one of his last speaking engagements in Toronto. He was passionate, funny, and a great story teller in the southern U.S. tradition."
