Jimmy Carter Work Projects+

The Jimmy Carter Work Project (JCWP) is the most widely recognized Habitat event and one of the ways in which Dow lends support to Habitat for Humanity. The JCWP is an annual, week-long building event hosted by former President Carter and his wife Rosalynn that alternates between international and U.S. based projects each year. This year marks the Carters' 27th anniversary of building homes around the globe.
