The Airmen volunteers will work alongside community volunteers Monday through Saturday over the next three to four weeks to complete the house for Ms. Sepeda and her family. 20 to 30 Airmen will be involved on each shift of the build. "I love volunteering and I feel this is a good opportunity for me to give back to the community," said Senior Airman Shay Corbett, 319th Civil Engineer Squadron and a Habitat for Humanity volunteer. The finished house will be 970 square feet with a driveway and a finished basement. "I can't wait to move into our new home," said Ms. Sepeda.
