Senator Amy Koch and Rep. Mary Kiffmeyer introduced a resolution this month to recognize the life and achievements of Millard Fuller, Founder of Habitat for Humanity.
Fuller founded Habitat for Humanity International in 1976 with a goal of eliminating poverty housing worldwide. To date, affiliates like Central Minnesota Habitat for Humanity have built over 300,000 homes around the world and housed over 1.5 million people.
Fuller passed away in February of this year, and this resolution acknowledges his incredible and important legacy. In 2007, he visited Central Minnesota and attended a ceremony at our Elk River home. CMHFH is dedicating our Big Lake Build Project to his memory, to be started this summer.
