Habitat for Humanity at Virginia Tech launched a student-designed, student-organized, and student-built home in the greater Blacksburg area. The home build will utilize partnerships in the Virginia Tech community to build a home for a family, and will serve as a model of futuristic, efficient, and affordable homes for families in need in the New River Valley and around the world. Known as “The Better Box,” the multi-year project will require the development of partnerships, consistency of leadership within Habitat for Humanity at Virginia Tech, and commitment to the overall mission of Habitat for Humanity.
