We've arrived in Immokalee!

March 02, 2015

Our first morning out we met with Susan Golden at the Immokalee Housing and Family Services (IHFS) and learned about the low income housing available for agricultural workers. This year IHFS is celebrating 30 years of providing housing!

After Susan gave us an orientation, Zuziki, the head maintenance manager set us to work. We power washed units, cleaned gutters, and picked up litter around the complex. And of course had some fun...
