University of Denver students travelled to Gulfport, Mississippi from December 8-15, 2013 to work with Habitat for Humanity rebuilding homes destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. A group of 15 students from different fraternities and sororities worked on three construction sites over the week, learning construction skills while helping the local community. Each day, the students arrived early at the worksites to work for eight hours, gaining construction experience and forming friendships with both the Habitat staff and each other.
