RV Care-a-Vanners: Giving Shelter

This story follows several RV Care-a-Vanners on their journey to reinvest in community – and not just their own – by building houses with Habitat for Humanity and helping low-income families make a fresh start. At the same time, these older adults are building the kinds of relationships they found most often on the job: relationships with a purpose.
