Day Two: Demolition of Raise this Roof

37 jobs were gained through today's progress. The ceiling of the building is completely down and the iron throughout the building is being untied. The school is hoping to salvage 80% of the iron to save on cost. The wheel barrows were smoking as the rocks and stones were being transported down the street to the dump site. Hundreds of trips were made and the rubble is gradually becoming less and less.
Pastor Claude was excited at the progress of work at his school, he began to dance. Check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGeVQfWxkIk
The neighborhood has heard that New Generation School is offering jobs. This morning, many people were turned away, due to lack of tools and jobs. The people we are able to offer jobs to, worked diligently. We realize we cannot help everyone, but we can help some.
