News summary

Former President Jimmy Carter's 100th birthday is being celebrated with a series of events, including a star-studded benefit concert and the construction of 30 new Habitat for Humanity homes in St. Paul, Minnesota. The concert, which aired on Georgia Public Broadcasting, raised funds for the Carter Center, founded by the Carters to promote peace and fight disease. Thousands of volunteers, led by country music stars Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood, are participating in the Habitat build, which is part of a larger initiative aiming to construct 150 homes by 2028. Carter's long-standing commitment to Habitat for Humanity began in 1984, and he has been recognized for his humanitarian efforts, which earned him the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002. His legacy emphasizes the importance of action over power, as highlighted by Jonathan Reckford, CEO of Habitat for Humanity International. Personal stories from beneficiaries, like Cleora Taylor, further illustrate the profound impact of Carter's hands-on approach to philanthropy.
