Thank you, President Carter for your service to our country.
I am big fan of Jimmy Carter, but he did not found Habitat. That was founded by Millard Fuller and his wife Linda, which is an interesting story. Fuller was a self-made millionaire by his late 20's, then sold off all of his possessions, gave his money to the poor and devotes the rest of his life to charity. Carter was hugely helpful in promoting and working for Habitat, but Fuller should get credit where it is due. A family member of mine worked closely with him for years, and he was an amazing person.
