Priyanka Kripalani ’06 mentioned in SHNS article on Habitat for Humanity
Priyanka Kripalani ’06 was mentioned in an August 11 Scripps Howard News Service article titled “Houses rise from Indian rubble thanks to Habitat for Humanity.” Kripalani is one of the volunteers from six countries (Armenia, El Salvador, India, Mexico, the United States and Uganda) in Kootapuly, India, helping to build Habitat’s 200,001st house — one of 6,000 planned houses for tsunami survivors. The work is being done almost exclusively with primitive hand tools, a decision Habitat made to confirm respect for native customs and craftsmanship. Media outlets across the country picked up the article. Kripalani is a political science/IR major and will begin an internship with a United Nations agency in Geneva next month.
