Slideshow: Volunteers make Garcia's dream come true

By Jeannette.Cruz

GCU News Bureau

Nearly 300 volunteers from Habitat for Humanity and Grand Canyon University spread their love and spirit at Alfred F. Garcia Elementary, one of the state's most impoverished schools. The volunteers woke up early on a Saturday to shovel mounds of sand into two playground areas, paint the exterior wall of the school, turn the outdoor basketball, four-square and hopscotch squares into splendors of color, and even refill by hand the faded school emblem at the school’s entrance with fresh color.

Bible Verse

Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not corrupt and thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. (Matthew 6:19-20)
