CORNELIUS

Volunteers with Our Towns Habitat for Humanity will begin repairing the home of a Cornelius woman this week as part of a national initiative to fix existing homes in struggling neighborhoods. The Cornelius-based Habitat affiliate is among 163 chosen recently for Habitat for Humanity International's new Neighborhood Revitalization Initiative.

The effort will focus on improving housing conditions such as those at Mattie Caldwell's home on Catawba Avenue. Volunteers will replace the roof to her home and repair interior water damage. Volunteers will also rebuild her home's wheelchair/walker ramp and side entrance, which are no longer safe.
