It’s an exciting week for Staff Sgt Christian Bagge.  After losing his legs overseas, a swarm of volunteers are breaking ground on a brand new home for him.  It will be specially adapted to fit his needs including custom cabinets, doors and even light switches.

Friends of the Carpenter

Great story this week about Friends of the Carpenter.  They’re a faith-based group out of Vancouver.  They teach people about carpentry and woodworking.  It starts as a hobby, but then can progress into employment.  In fact, they’re hoping to grow their manufacturing program in the near future.
