51品茶students from Alpha Zeta Omega-Lambda Nu, a professional pharmacy fraternity, recently helped to build a Habitat for Humanity house in Scarborough.

Working alongside the future homeowner, the students spent two Saturdays installing insulation and drywall. This is the second year that Alpha Zeta Omega students have volunteered with the organization, helping to build a house in Freeport last February.

Pharmacy student Neva Gross ('19) spoke about her experience, stating, "I joined Alpha Zeta Omega-Lambda Nu because I was aware of their community involvement and specifically their connection with Habitat for Humanity." This opportunity, she wrote, "was life-changing for me. I I never imagined that I would gain so much emotionally and spiritually by helping someone else fulfill their dreams."

This ongoing community service project is scheduled to run through 2018, when Habitat for Humanity鈥檚 Scarborough housing is slated for completion.
