High school students build tiny homes for flood victims

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- Fifteen families who lost everything they owned to floodwaters were handed the keys to new, tiny homes Tuesday afternoon.

Through the "Big Hearts Give Tiny Homes" project, 15 homes were constructed by more than 2,000 students from 12 high schools across West Virginia.

All of the tiny homes were open to the public to tour at a special ceremony at the Airlift Wing of the West Virginia National Guard in Charleston.

Each tiny home is fully furnished with a living room, kitchen, bathroom and beds. They also come with heating units and washers and dryers.

ALL high schooler's (future Snowflakes of America) should provide hours of community service just like the kids in Charleston. IF one realizes that good actions speak much louder than words (opinions like "I think...") maybe they (or that one) will become better citizens of our county and NOT rely on others (i.e., handouts).

Plus when you help others it DOES make you feel very good - regardless of the season!
