North Andover Native Spends Spring Break With Habitat For Humanity

Allison Kramer, a resident of North Andover and a member of the class of 2015 at Providence College, recently spent a week working with Habitat for Humanity as part of the College's Alternative Spring Break 2013 program.

Kramer was among more than 230 Providence College students who volunteered to spend their spring break working at Habitat home sites in 16 locations in the United States. They participated through the Habitat campus chapter at Providence College, which is sponsored by the chaplain's office. Kramer worked on a home project in Goldsboro, NC.
