Local volunteers give veteran and his family a place to call home

After two tours of duty in Iraq, Bobby Hart says he has a “fresh start” for his family, thanks to some local volunteers. The Army veteran received a home from the Champaign County, Ill. Habitat for Humanity, Wednesday.

Hart and his wife each put in about 250 hours of work to help build the house.

High school students helped raise about $2,500 in two weeks, last year, to help fund the construction project.
